​yeemz - In The City

★ Verse 1 ★
He learned how to love in the city
I can tell by the choice of his words
That he's been around girls much too pretty
Too pretty for his own good
So his words become feelings' harsh keeper
And his heart swells up like a balloon
A jailbird locked up in the city
A youthfulness lost far too soon

★ Chorus ★
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

★ Verse 2 ★
She learned how to love from her mother
From the way the sun caresses the leaves
From the way the moon guides the whole ocean
She learned to carе, to surrender, to feed
So she took hеr keys and the pieces
Of the hearts that he left on the floor
Of the 500 square foot apartment
In the city she came to searching for more

★ Chorus ★
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

★ Verse 3 ★
He learned how to love in the city
But now he thinks twice about his words
'Cause they've axed a forest around him
And he's left without love, without warmth
So he took the seeds and the pieces
Of those hearts that he left on the floor
Of that 500 square foot apartment
And he set out searching for more
