Girl from the City, Pt.2

[Verse 1]

Chasin' the sunset, headed west

Leavin' behind a girl, think it's for the best

Tryin' to forget, what a mess

Feelin' my forehead burn, feel her in my chest

Cuz she was someone who loves the city

More than she could ever love me

And she was what I thought I was missing

She misses everything but me

[Chorus]

I'm a mile high (mile high, mile high)

But I've never felt so low

So now I'm (now I'm, now I'm)

Lookin' out the window

At the night sky (night sky, night sky)

And the clouds below

Wish you were mine (wish you were mine, wish you were mine)

But you'll never know (never know, no you'll never know, never know, no you'll never know)

[Verse 2]

Flight attendant gives me a water

Says that I don't look too well, do I need a doctor?

"I'll be fine, ma'am" I smile and say

"but could you ask the pilot to turn around the plane?"

"And take me back to the girl from the city

'cause I forgot to tell her how she looks so pretty

In the glow of the streetlights when I had her with me

Don't know if I'll ever get the chance, it's a pity"

[Chorus]

I'm a mile high (mile high, mile high)

But I've never felt so low

So now I'm (now I'm, now I'm)

Lookin' out the window

At the night sky (night sky, night sky)

And the clouds below

Wish you were mine (wish you were mine, wish you were mine)

But you'll never know (never know, no you'll never know, never know, no you'll never know)

[Bridge]

Landin' back in Omaha I pretend to know it all

And tell my friends the protocol of living in the city

Skyscrapers that grow too tall, subway trains, and concert halls

But I never mention you at all, no girl from the city, yeah, oooh

[Chorus]

I'm a mile high (mile high, mile high)

So now I'm (now I'm, now I'm)

Lookin' out the window

Am looking out the window

Oh, at the night sky (night sky, night sky)

And the clouds below

Wish you were mine, ooh (wish you were mine, wish you were mine)

But you'll never know (no you'll never know, no you'll never know)
