Just A City

it's so near to me

it's so dear to me

i see it in my sleep

and i always know if i've no where to go

it's somewhere i could be

i see you at night in the city light

but it could change so easily

it's just a city

and on night like this i feel small in this world

it's just a city and i am just a girl

it seems to me that once you stop walking

you don't want to know, you stop wanting to see

your eyes get used to the same old story

once you stop talking strangers

out of place out of time

nothing to hold me nothing mine

but i'm always told "there's no hurry don't go

there's nothing but time "but how do they know?
