No one told me that the city lights shine brighter
That the buildings are much taller than the night life scenes are But it’s colder there
These past tenders have showed me what you’ve got
Maybe you’ve got part of me or maybe you’ve got all of me but All in one
If you follow me believe the stories
It’s that the city’s never wrong and we’ll go down in glory Would you still go down?
I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
They, oh they say, We love you but it’s time to leave Oh I, I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
Two years later I’m standing in the snow
Thinkin’ maybe you’ll be waiting there when I get home When we get home
Waitin’ for the bus that brings me back to you
Countin’ out the little things that you always used to do And always knew
If you follow me believe the stories
It’s that the city’s never wrong and we’ll go down in glory Would you still go down?
I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
They, oh they say, We love you but it’s time to leave Oh I, I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
Just relax, try not to let it all pass you by
Know that the people and the faces and the places
Are with you for life
If you follow me believe the stories
It’s that the city’s never wrong and we’ll go down in glory Would you still go down?
So many stories of the places that we’ve been
So many, so many, so many people and so many friends They tell me
I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
They, oh they say, We love you but it’s time to leave Oh I, I’m not ready but it’s time to leave
We love you but it’s time to leave
