Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am, together we cry
I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
Well, I never worry
Now that is a lie
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city, she loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh no, no, no, yeah, yeah
Love me, I say, yeah yeah
One time
(Under the bridge downtown) Is where I drew some blood
(Under the bridge downtown) I could not get enough
(Under the bridge downtown) Forgot about my love
(Under the bridge downtown) I gave my life away
Yeah, yeah yeah (Away)
Oh no no no no, yeah yeah (Away)
Love me, I say, yeah yeah (Away)
Here I stay
