Lizzy

Watch that city by the end of the night

You say it looks so pretty in the lens of your mind

I hear the trees applaud as we ride by

Come on let's surf by Lizzy like we used to do

I say, "Let's paint the sky in a shade of you"

It's got many colours but you're only seeing in blue

Don't you know

Still I hear the talk

All through the yellow fog?

I'm melting into dark

Hey you

With the still of city lights

I'm feeling every sigh

I guess I'm passing by

Hey you

I'm trying to fill this space

With every word you say

When Lizzy hides her eyes

Her eyes, her eyes

The floors start shaking in the burning heat

As I'm trying to trace you with my fingertips

You say, "Look how morning always wins"

Come on, just watch the women as they come and go

I feel I'm trapped in a poem by TS Eliot

When you cloud me with your cigarette smoke

Don't you know

Still I hear the talk

All through the yellow fog?

I'm melting into dawn

Hey you

With the still of city lights

I'm feeling every sigh

I guess I'm passing by

Hey you

I'm trying to fill this space

With every word you say

When Lizzy hides her eyes

Her eyes, her eyes

Hey Lizzy

Hey Lizzy, stay

Hey Lizzy, stay there

Hey you

With the still of city lights

I'm feeling every sigh

I guess I'm passing by

Hey you (Hey Lizzy)

The feeling turns to white (Hey Lizzy, stay)

My thoughts are running wild (Hey Lizzy, stay there)

When Lizzy hides her eyes

Her eyes, eyes
