City by the Sea

I'm watching your house, as it's burning down

Should I call someone?

I wondered if, in a passing breath, you grabbed your coat

Before you ran out

But you've never taken

Good care of yourself, have you?

[Chorus]

You will live on

Cuz my conscience won't let me

Forget what was partly my fault

But I'll take what I can get

From you

The city by the sea

Tries to comfort me

The best she can

But I've never been one to take advice

From someone who truly cares

And I'm almost therе

I'll breathe the sеa air deep

It's cold, and it's fair

[Chorus]x2
