City Lights

I've been walking around

Down every street

But nothing says home

Than those empty nights

Nights where i lie in bed

And just stare at the fan

But i'll walk through city lights

And i'll walk, until i reach the bay

And at the waters edge, with the twinkling stars

I wonder why we cannot be

And after all is said and done

(from the tip of your marlboro red)

I know i need you

(i see your smile)

(from replacement)

But its too late for us

(comes a sense of friendship)

I've nothing left to give

(that will last a lifetime)

I'm just so tired

Of all this disappointment

And the worst part of it all

Was the look in your eyes.
