Dried-Out Cities

Someone to watch over me
I couldn't ask you for more
Why do I long to be free
But cry when you walk out the door
You got me going round like a record babe
I wanna show my love but I don't know how
I know that I'm a mess but I pray you'll stick around

[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown river, in your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops, going up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
Lovers get lost in the sky
Gone in a blink of an eye
Let's make our own legacy
Chiseled in stone we will be
You got me going round like a record babe
It's coming over me a like a sudden wave
I know that I'm a mess but I pray that you'll stay

[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown river, in your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops, going up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
Take me to your downtown rivers
Turn me to a sea of sugars
Eerything I see is clearer when the lights are low
Take me to your dried-out cities
Everything you see is pretty
I can see it alll through your eyes
Like they're my own

[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown river, in your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops, going up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
