This big city seemed like a small town 'til you left me
|
Now I look for you everywhere, but I can't find a trace
|
Without you the city's cold and unforgiving
|
Among millions I feel all alone, lost and out of place
|
|
I left with you against my own better judgment,
|
I wasn't ready to leave my family home
|
But our little town couldn't hold your big ideas,
|
And I knew I couldn't hold you on the phone
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Well, we fell into mighty wild and fast company,
|
I trusted your older eyes to see straight
|
But money and champagne changed your point of view,
|
by the time I noticed, it was far too late
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
