Lonely in the City

[Verse 1]
Don't you worry, my friend's seen the future
He says it all works out
And these morning commuters on their handheld computers
I'm not sure what they're on about
They're worried sick, I'm running blind
From the masterminds of modern crimes
Listening in on conversations
Sometimes they're not saying good stuff

[Chorus]
Lonely in the city
Waiting for a call
All the girls are so pretty
They don't see me at all

[Verse 2]
I listen to Dylan and I read Kerouac
Trying to make something happen or bring something back
But if there's a coast to rеach and a woman to see
I'll give up everything and throw mysеlf at her feet

[Chorus]
Lonely in the city
Waiting for a call
All the girls are so pretty
They don't see me at all
Like a Queen streetcar
Slowly moving on
From affairs of the heart
And cynical songs

[Post-Chorus]
Lonely in the city
The revelation's coming anytime now
The revelation's coming anytime now

[Bridge]
Blue eyes, you've seen regret, missteps and now all this
Mending a broken fence as your last defense
Learn from myths, idioms and clichés for no reason
Don't worry it'll all work out
Don't worry it'll all work out, don't worry it'll all work out
Don't worry it'll all work out

[Chorus]
Lonely in the city
Waiting for a call
All the girls are so pretty
They don't see me at all
Like a Queen streetcar
Slowly moving on
From affairs of the heart
And cynical songs
Lonely in the city
Waiting for a call
All the girls are so pretty
They don't see me at all
Like a Queen streetcar
Slowly moving on
From affairs of the heart
And cynical songs

[Outro]
Lonely in the city
