[Verse 1]
Time stands still where I’m from
Oh you can taste it like nostalgia
Everybody, every day
Doing the same things
I just wanna feel the escape
Ridin' round with you all night
Staying out until the morning rise
The first kiss on your lips
Electric paradise
I think I’m in love tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
I just can’t stay away for long
It’s right where we belong
[Chorus]
The city of love
The city of us
The city that’s made for more than lust
Baby, I just can’t get enough
The city escape
Let’s run away
I could do it night and day
Baby tell me that’s okay
All I need is you
Under the moon
On that summer night in June
Oh it feels like wе’re in bloom
The city’s alive
With you by my sidе
Nothing ever felt so right
That’s just the city of love
[Verse 2]
Our polaroid pictures on your walls
With the roses right above them all
I remember how you swore
Brooklyn was the best
Heart beating out of my chest
[Pre-Chorus]
This love is ultraviolet light
I just need it one more time
[Chorus]
The city of love
The city of us
The city that’s made for more than lust
Baby, I just can’t get enough
The city escape
Let’s run away
I could do it night and day
Baby tell me that’s okay
All I need is you
Under the moon
On that summer night in June
Oh it feels like we’re in bloom
The city’s alive
With you by my side
Nothing's ever felt so right
That’s just the city of love
[Bridge]
Time stands still where I’m from
Oh you can taste it like nostalgia
(We're in the city of love)
[Chorus]
The city of love
The city of us
The city that’s made for more than lust
Baby, I just can’t get enough
(Baby I just can't get enough)
The city escape
Let’s run away
I could do it night and day
Baby, tell me that’s okay
[Post-Chorus]
The city of love
City of us
Can’t get enough
The city escape
Let’s run away
Night and day
Come take a ride with me
All through city
Yeah
We’re in the city of love

I think my two favorites have to be "Heaven” and “City of Love”. “City of Love”, like I mentioned before is just a very special song to me. I talk about growing up in a small town and escaping to the city to find l...
