​philadelphia

[Verse 1]
Remember when we used to stay on the line?
Every day, bad service all the time
Kept you in my pocket when I went outside
Snowstorm, wait, lemme call you back in five

[Chorus]
Oh, Philadelphia, you were so close to me

[Verse 2]
Remember sweet summer like paradise
Invincible just like she described
When Steph called me last weekend I criеd
She's my best friend

[Chorus]
Oh, Philadеlphia, you were so close to me

[Post-Chorus]
Don't see you around anymore
Don't see you around anymore
I don't see you around anymore
Don't see you around anymore
But I don't see you around anymore
Don't see you around anymore

[Bridge]
But that's just the way, that's just the way that it's got to go
There once was a time, once was a place where you felt like home
And we're moving away, disintegrating as we both grow
And nothing will change anything once we hang up the phone

[Verse 3]
Met my friend Brian on his nineteenth
He dove headfirst drunk, cold river scream
Tried to run the world from our dorm rooms
Yeah, we were such a good team

[Chorus]
Oh, Philadelphia, you were so close to me (You were so close to me)

[Verse 4]
Then he dropped out and I moved out like you moved on she found someone
We spend less time in the past and we spend more time with the future
Now I'll miss you the most of all
So I'll call you from the future with my head on your chest
You say that time is always running out, you can't get upset

[Chorus]
So Philadelphia, I'll keep you close to me
Oh, Philadelphia, I swear I'll keep you close to me (Me)

[Outro]
'Cause just the way, that's just the way that it's got to go
(That's just the way that it got to go, baby, that's just the way—)
There once was a time, once was a place where you felt like home
(I miss the way we— even though I miss the way we—)
We're moving away, disintegrating as we both grow
(We fade away, we— Even if we fade away, we—)
I promise nothing will change once we hang up the phone
