lyrics

Well Jude shouldnt think about it what meant
When Claire said she doesn’t talk about him when he’s gone
Cuz Jude should know about her affluence
And all her parents’ opinions always being wrong
Claire says she’s got a man who’s not in school with us
He not in love but he can’t get enough
He’s got a Porsche but he says it aint much

And I walk down the city, the city streets
They’re so tidy and the sidewalks neat
I wonder how it gonna go between u & me
Cuz nothing ever lasts in the city that sleeps

Well Jane should think that it’s peculiar
that Emily thinks about her all day long
And Em should find that it’s interesting that she worries about Jane meeting her mom
And when Saturday night starts to come to an end
Jane goes and sits upon Emily’s bed
Wondering if they’ll be more than friends

And I walk down the city, the city streets
They’re so tidy and the sidewalks neat
I wonder how its gonna go between u & me
Cuz nothing ever lasts in the city that sleeps
I walk down the city, the city streets
Nothing in my mind except hangxiety
Will you ever love me guess in time we’ll see
Cuz nothing ever lasts in the city that sleeps

And we say something’s gotta go someone has to break
I don’t really know how much more I can take
And if it’s not for show I hope you will stay
Cuz I don’t know how to keep the feelings at bay

And I walk down the city, the city streets
They’re so tidy and the sidewalks neat
I know you won’t be ever coming home with me
Cuz we could never lasts in the city that sleeps
I walk down the city, the city streets
I’m running out of time but I got nowhere to be
Will you ever know how much you mean to me?
Cuz how would you know in the city that sleeps
