We took a u-turn down on 42nd street
Almost hit another car
Spilled my coffee on my jeans and I said
“Aw, they're ruined now”
She said
“Naw, they're better now. It's just a matter of perspective.”
She kissed my cheek
Its the little imperfections that make'em unique
I don't know how she does it, but she could
See the stars in the city
She sees a diamond when the world sees dust
Finds the glitter in the gritty
I know I ain't much but
That girl sees something nobody else can see
When she sees something in me
Yeah she could see the stars in the city
The more I hang with her the more I realize
Their can be beauty in the broken if you open up your mind
She says thinks like
“Ain't this rain nice” and
“Don't sad songs make you smile”
Well if she's crazy
I wanna be crazy too
She's the kinda girl that can break up a band
I wanna see whatever she can
See the stars in the city
She sees a diamond when the world sees dust
Finds the glitter in the gritty
I know I ain't much but
That girl sees something nobody else can see
When she sees something in me
Yeah she could see the stars in the city
That girl sees something nobody else can see
When she sees something in me
Yeah she could see the stars in the city
In the city
See the stars in the city
The stars in the city
She sees a diamond when the world sees dust
Finds the glitter in the gritty
So pretty she can break you heart
Yeah she sees the stars in the city
In the city
She sees the stars in the city
Yeah
