Sara Bareilles ☆ City

There’s a harvest
each Saturday night
At the bars filled with perfume
and hitching a ride
A place you can stand
for one night and get gone
And it’s clear
this conversation
ain’t doing a thing
‘Cause these boys
only listen to me when I sing
And I don’t feel like
singing tonight
all the same songs
Here in these deep city lights
Girl could get lost tonight
I’m finding every reason
to be gone
There’s nothing here to hold on to
Could I hold you
The situation’s always the same
You got your wolves
in their clothes
Whispering Hollywood’s name
Stealing gold from the silver
they see
But it’s not me
Here in these deep city lights
Girl could get lost tonight
I’m finding every reason
to be gone
There’s nothing here to hold on to
Could I hold you
Calling out somebody save me
I feel like I’m fading away
am I gone
Calling out somebody save me
I feel like I’m fading
No no no
No no no
No no no no
Deep city lights
girl could get lost tonight
I’m finding every reason
to be gone
And there’s nothing
here to hold on to
Could I hold on to you
