lyrics

Verse 1:
The seams on my frisco knitted memories are frayin’ down
The dirt’s workin it’s way in between
I’m walkin down Lombard roads, un-foretold, don’t know where they’ll go
Just following the street lights’ foggy gleam

Chorus:
Oh, when it’s a walk in the city, you’re gonna hit some ups and downs
Oh, when it’s a walk in the city, it’s gonna be tough to stick around
Oh, and when it’s a walk in the city, babe
You can’t always be walkin in the moonlight
You might have to go through the dark to see the sunrise

Verse 2:
The sweetness of sugar coated streetlights is a’wearin’ down
Our breath is dancing in the cold
Sometimes you gotta make a left on 2nd guess boulevard
To find that love has cast the mold

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:

You know it’s worth the wait, you don’t want to blow fate away
With a taxi ride you can’t confide in the safety of a subway line
Cause when you walk, you grow stronger, yeah when you walk you grow stronger
I’ll walk to all the coffee shops and play this song all over this town…
All over this town, all over this town, all over, over, yeah, yeah…
