City Love

I never liked this Apple much

It always seemed too big to touch

I can't remember how I found

My way before she came around

I tell everyone

I smile just because

I got a city love

I found it in Lydia

And I can't remember life

before her name

She keeps a toothbrush at my place

As if I had the extra space

She steals my clothes

to wear to work

I know her hairs are on my shirt

I tell everyone

I smile just because

I got a city love

I found in Lydia

And I can't remember life before

The day she called up

and came to me

Covered in rain with

dinnertime shadowing

And as her clothes spun

we spooned

And I knew I was through

When I said I love you

Friday evening

we've been drinking

Two AM I swear that

I just might propose

But we close the tab

Split a cab

And call each other up

when we get home yeah

Falling asleep to the

sound of sirens

I got a city love oh

And I found it in America oh oh oh

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 her name
