It was cold outside
So I thought I'd get away
To the one place
Where I'd be warm
Spent my last few dollars on a ticket to fly
Oh, I'mma take a jet plane
To carry me straight to your arms
And when the wheels touched down
I called for you
Said, 'Baby I'm here all for you"
And you let me know
That you were with her
It made me wonder, baby are we still in love
And then I thought to myself
Maybe we never were
And I've only got myself to blame
For painting these skies with your name
And it's a crying shame cause
The city ain't the same without you, babe
The streets where we walked hand in hand
Sharing our dreams making our plans
And no one understands cause
The city ain't the same without you, babe
And I was waiting for your invitation
Thinking maybe you would send one
You coulda left me in any town
Ooh, any town but this one
And now that you're gone away
It feels like what we had wasn't real at all
Missing your heartbeat while the city sleeps away
And I've only got myself to blame
For painting these skies with your name
And it's a crying shame cause
The city ain't the same without you, babe
I'll kiss the wind and breathe your air
And all this loneliness I'll bear
But it seems so unfair cause
The city ain't the same without you, babe
La la la la la la, letting you go....letting you go.....
The city ain't the same without you, babe [x2]
Spent my last few dollars on a ticket to fly
Oh, I'mma take a jet plane
To carry me straight to your arms
