Ella Jane - The City lyrics

[Verse 1] Just give me a second Before I pack up my boxes and shut you out of my life Just give me a minute So I can drink up the feeling we had just one last time Your shadow stained the carpet So I got hardwood floors The noise punched through the window - I don't sleep anymore Mmm We moved to the rhythm of the traffic on the street The street, mmm Mmm I try to dance now but I can't feel no beat No beat [Refrain] (Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey) (Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey) [Verse 2] And under the sidewalks, (mm) I ride the subway 'cause I look for you in every face Don't wanna find you, though 'Cause 8 million strangers lose their distance once you take their place Mmm 8 million bodies and they're yours and now I'm out of space [Refrain] (Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey) (Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey) [Bridge] There's nothing left for me In this city anymore, mm But Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night... [Outro] And without Your light to blind I can see the stars at night Windows open Shut my eyes Sync my resting heartbeat to the night... Without Your light to blind I can see the stars at night Windows open Shut my eyes Sync my resting heartbeat to the quiet night ...When the silence gets too loud I'll feel you calling me home When the silence gets too loud I'll feel you calling me home
