City Song

Go ahead and walk away from me

I can see what's going down

Dear boy, before you go

You had better hear me out



I've seen her face, I know her name

Comin' on to deal her drug

Like a summer field in flame

She's gonna light you up

But you think you're in love



I would give you every tear

But your destiny holds true

If I cried a lifetime still

This river would not save you

No, it would not save you



Something in you rages on

You know I don't believe the lies

Son, you're bound to prove me wrong

But I see doubt there in your eyes



I would give you every tear

But your destiny holds true

If I cried a lifetime

Still this river would not save you

No, it would not save you



I've been in the city for forty days

I recognize the devil behind that pretty face of hers

There's no mistaking this road you're taking

Will only break you down



There's nothing more that I can say

You're gonna go and prove me wrong anyway

Remember it's you that walked away

I will not compromise



Virgin Mother, light the way

All my weary breath is flown

I ran out of time to weep

A thousand, thousand sighs ago



Go ahead and walk away from here
