Memory of You Lyrics by Sophia Petro

The 11th Hour

2023

39 floors above the city
From a distance, it looks so pretty
When the sun rises above the horizon
A golden paintbrush colours the skyline
It all looks so dreamy
And so damn picturesque
But this urban existence
Is isolating at best
And I never got upset about getting stuck in the elevator
A dreary day was rectified when I got to see you later
I used to love the clustered, crowded, raucous avenues
But now every place is taintеd by the memory of you
I told my family I moved hеre for the lifestyle
But to believe that would just be juvenile
Cause you dreamed of the urban sprawl
Stuck New York City on your bedroom wall
And I was part of that picture for a while
But I guess when your 19
You think you know best
So I followed you blindly
Til you turned around and left
And I never got upset about getting stuck in the elevator
A dreary day was rectified when I got to see you later
I used to love the clustered, crowded, raucous avenues
But now every place is tainted by the memory of you
This is a modern-day city
And a modern-day rendezvous
Chivalry’s dead
Convinced me you’re into me, I went and followed you
Attention spans are quickly dwindling
I mustn’t have been all that interesting
Oh your wandering eyes went off searching for someone new
But remember that first time that we got stuck in the elevator
I was so annoyed, yelling at the operator
But you have a sharp wit, I was laughing in no time
Do you recycle those same jokes when she’s about to cry?
And I doubt she gets upset about getting stuck in the elevator
A dreary day is rectified when she gets to see you later
I’m sure she loves the clustered, crowded, raucous avenues
But one day they’ll be tainted by the memory of you
One day they’ll be tainted by the memory of you
Cause attention spans are dwindling and you’ve got wandering eyes
And now you’re renting an apartment in another high rise
