That City Lyrics by Donovan Melero
Every heart I’ve ever loved is gone.
Ash remains where fires once had burned.
I watch them all moving on to find what they sought all along.
I chose this over them.
I question now was that choice wrong.
I remember when you named Luisa.
How it killed me when you cried cause’ you couldn’t keep her.
Wish I had cared more for that, the way that I did for these songs.
I showed it in my own way, darling that’s just how I was. I was.
You say I’m late I showed up anyway.
Took a chance overnight I had to see you at the place where we met.
Will we end in that city?
We talked in your car.
I tried hard, but your wall was put up.
Timing never lined up right for us.
But you waited so you wouldn’t have to hurt.
I only saw you and I, but you had chased me long enough.
I have the same fucking dream you call me and ask to come back.
You say I’m late I showed up anyway.
Took a chance overnight I had to see you at the place where we met.
Will we end in that city?
We talked in your car.
I tried hard. I tried hard.
Maybe I’m a little late! I showed up anyway.
Took a flight overnight. I had to do it right.
Outside my hotel we threw out our whole story.
And when it comes back I’ll be there unless I’ve moved along.
