About the Artist
Lyrics
Capitol city, skyline photo Skyscrapers shine, the sun's so Low in the sky Secretaries at the hot dog vendors Cabs honk at the bicycle messengers Rolling by I can't call with a subway token Anyway, the phones are all broken I wish you were here, Better yet I wish I was there with you You wouldn't like it here You should stay right there Breath'in that country air You wouldn't like it here Capitol towers radiate a steam vent Scream along with the clarinets and Arguments echo down the hall I can't sleep, I can't wake up Shakin' up, maybe we should break up I wish you were here, better yet I wish I was there with you You wouldn't like it here You should stay right there Breathin' that country air You wouldn't like it here ... Capitol city, skyline photo Picture postcard sign the moon's so I can't smile when my heart's still broken Far away, in love and unspoken I wish you were here Or I was there with you
