The Lumineers - Life In The City

Whooooa-whooooa Whooooa-whooooa And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once? I knew the dream, it died JMZ line, Myrtle and Broadway But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once Whoa-whoa, living life in the city Whoa-whoa, it will never be pretty Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Whoa-whoa, we can plan if we make it Whoa-whoa, we won't let 'em They won't take it from me No-oh-oh, whoa Whooooa-whooooa Whooooa-whooooa And if you leave, don't leave me all alone 'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll be cold And I miss my dad, Cleopatra sitting on the phone So take me back off these streets And we'll never be apart Together from the start Never, never, falling back alone Oh-whoa, living life in the city Oh-whoa, it will never be pretty Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-whoa, we can plan if we make it Oh-whoa, we won't let 'em They won't take it from me No-oh-oh, whoa And if the sun don't shine on me today And if the subways flood and bridges break Will you just lay down and dig your grave Or will you rail against the dying day
