Lyrics Ellie Goulding

Ellie Goulding

In My City

If I ever had a wish in the whole world

I would’ve listened to my brother when he spoke to me

And I never would’ve played with my conscience

In the fields where I was in their company

But You gave me wings and I used them

I used them, I used them on my youth

And You gave me wings and I used them

I used them, and I won’t lose them

Now I found my feet count to 1, 2, 3

And I’m taking off tonight, now I’m free

As I walk my feet on the cold concrete

And I and I and I

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going off the dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city

Rolling down the streets in my new town

With the lights blinding and my heart played down

I think I’ll get a job receive people’s thunder

But the folks back home I’ll make them vouch

You gave me wings and I used them

I used them, I used them on my youth

Yeah You gave me wings and I used them

I used them, I don’t wanna lose them

I don’t wanna lose them

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going off the dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city

Shoulders ache for wanted wings

My city shakes, the fear in me

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going off the dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city
