Meet Me In The City
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You were living alone in the city
Open window lets the rain into the bed
See you every day, outside the corner liquor store
Black coffee in your hands, between your lips a cigarette
Ask you baby to come over
We can bundle up drink wine and watch TV
Won't you stay for some coffee in the morning
And a breakfast that I made for you and me?
Darling
Won't you meet me in the city
I'm too fucked to use my phone
I want you to take me home
Darling
Won't meet me in the moonlight
Cause we're both growing old
And I don't want to waste another night
Come home early on a Tuesday
Eating leftovers out on the fire escape
Folding laundry while you get out of the bathtub
Close the window, turn the lights out, shut the drapes
Come on baby, I'll flip the record
What's the point in growing old if it's not together?
You're just so good to me, got me begging on my knees
The way you smile, the way you speak
Won't you meet me where I want to be?
Darling
Won't you meet me in the city?
I'm too fucked up to make it home
I don't want to go alone
Darling
Won't you meet me after midnight?
Cause we're both growing old
And I dont want to waste another night
I wanna scream I wanna shout, up on the rooftop we'll be making out!
Don't wanna leave the bed today, fuck my job I wanna say I love you!
(This is the section of the song where everyone who's listening to this starts making out)
Darling
Won't you meet me in the city?
I'm too fucked up to make it home
I don't want to go alone
Darling
Won't you meet me in the moonlight?
Cause we're both growing old
And I don't want to waste another
Darling
Won't you meet me in the city?
I'm too fucked up to use my phone
I want you to take me home
Darling
Won't you meet me in the moonlight
We're both growing old
And I don't want to waste another
