lyrics

This poor lonely heart, it’s made of pure steel
And you can’t let it cry at the poor end of street
I’ve populated half the city child
But I still can’t find no love
Somebody has to heal me from up above

There ain’t no way that I could stay here breathing
There it goes, her arms that hold me closely, so closely

I can’t let it down, this hope I feel
Oh this city has made me cry but I still can’t leave her
The streets paved with pain of all my past loves
Please don’t let it die cause I have had enough

There ain’t no way that I could stay here breathing
There it goes, her arms that hold me closely, so closely

I know that it’s time
For this city of mine
To just crumble down and let me hold it, just let me hold it

All you got to let me do
I know, I know this city made for me
