City Love (a John Mayer Song)
I never liked this apple much
It always seemed too big to touch
I can’t remember how I found
My way before he came around
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
And I can’t remember life before his name
He keeps a toothbrush at my place
As if I had the extra space
He steals my clothes to wear to work
I know - his hairs are on my shirts
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
And I can’t remember life before
The day
He called up and came to me
Covered in rain
And dinnertime shadowing
And as his clothes spun, we spooned
And I knew I was through
When I said I love you
Friday evening, we’ve been drinking
2 am, I swear I might propose
But we close the tab
Split a cab
And call each other up when we get home
Falling asleep to the sound
Of sirens
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
From the battery
To the gallery
It’s the kind of thing you only see
In scented, glossy magazines
And I can’t remember life before his name
It always seemed too big to touch
I can’t remember how I found
My way before he came around
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
And I can’t remember life before his name
He keeps a toothbrush at my place
As if I had the extra space
He steals my clothes to wear to work
I know - his hairs are on my shirts
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
And I can’t remember life before
The day
He called up and came to me
Covered in rain
And dinnertime shadowing
And as his clothes spun, we spooned
And I knew I was through
When I said I love you
Friday evening, we’ve been drinking
2 am, I swear I might propose
But we close the tab
Split a cab
And call each other up when we get home
Falling asleep to the sound
Of sirens
I’ve got a city love
I found it in lydia
From the battery
To the gallery
It’s the kind of thing you only see
In scented, glossy magazines
And I can’t remember life before his name
