Sometimes this city is quiet
Sometimes this city is still
Sometimes I think it'll slow down
I know better, but I hope it will
It's not often, it's not often,
It's not often, but it's true
But sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes I don't think of you
Sometimes this city is friendly
Sometimes this city is kind
Sometimes I realize that lately
You haven't run across my mind
It's not common, it's not common
It's not common, but it's right
And sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes I don't mind the nights
Sometimes this city is sorry
Sometimes this city regrets
Sometimes this city remembers
All of the people trying to forget
It's not always, it's not always,
It's not always but it's enough
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes this city lets up
