"City Nights" lyrics
When we were young, thought we had nothing to lose
Stupid words we say and the things we do
Sayin', "So what if I, so what if I bruise?"
But no one tells you the bruises bleed right through
It's like you never left. Your perfume in the corridor
After all this time still not ready to let you go
Bring back the city nights
Back when it was you and I
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you, oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
Now lookin' back on all the little things that you did
I never noticed you, and I'm sorry for this
Oh, oh
So what if I, so what if I call?
Would my arms be better than his to take you home?
Yeah, yeah
It's like you never left. Your perfume in the corridor
After all this time still not ready to let you go, let you go
Bring back the city nights
Back when it was you and I
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
Ay, ay, the city nights
Ay, ay, the city nights
Oh, all the city nights
So why
When the party is done, no one left in the room
Why am I still always lookin' for you?
And those city nights
Ay
Back when it was you and I
Ay
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
Stupid words we say and the things we do
Sayin', "So what if I, so what if I bruise?"
But no one tells you the bruises bleed right through
It's like you never left. Your perfume in the corridor
After all this time still not ready to let you go
Bring back the city nights
Back when it was you and I
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you, oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
Now lookin' back on all the little things that you did
I never noticed you, and I'm sorry for this
Oh, oh
So what if I, so what if I call?
Would my arms be better than his to take you home?
Yeah, yeah
It's like you never left. Your perfume in the corridor
After all this time still not ready to let you go, let you go
Bring back the city nights
Back when it was you and I
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
Ay, ay, the city nights
Ay, ay, the city nights
Oh, all the city nights
So why
When the party is done, no one left in the room
Why am I still always lookin' for you?
And those city nights
Ay
Back when it was you and I
Ay
'Cause over and over and over I'm thinkin'
I still need you, I'm still missin'
The Friday nights
With nowhere to go, but we would drive all night
'Cause over and over and over I'm breakin'
While he holds you, I'm still missin' you
Still thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, oh
And I know, and I know I'm not over it
'Cause I still need you, I'm still missin'
The city nights
