Apartment

I'm living in an apartment

Never have before

And it feels a bit strange living up here on the seventh floor

In the city where I come from

We always lived in a house

But now I've got people over me, under me

I'm living with my lover

We've only got two rooms

And I'm working at a day job

While I decide what I really wanna do

I remember back in high school

Everyone was the same

But now I've got people over me, under me

Climb, climb, climb up the stairs

Everybody climb up the stairs

Everybody up the emergency exit

Everybody wants the view from way up there

I'm living for the present

I'm living day to day

I don't have a trust fund

I don't feel the need to superannuate

And when I'm feeling down, down, down

I end up in your arms

And your love washes over me, under me

Lover, please don't get over me.
