City Lyrics by Valerie

First & Foremost

2020

[Chorus]
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, you wouldn’t even know
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, wouldn’t even know
[Verse 1]
Why don’t you talk that talk? Go tell everybody that I don’t belong
In your little universe
I bet you thought I'd stay there watching you from far away
Well, can you see it now?
I’m onto better things
But I keep you around safe inside my head
So roll the windows down like you used to
Driving me 'round town
[Chorus]
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, you wouldn’t even know
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, wouldn’t even know
[Post-Chorus]
And you could buy this whole town if you wanted
Couldn’t dry my eyes if you tried
I’m so far away just like you wanted
Mastering the art of getting by
[Verse 2]
Put on our first dance song
Reminisce on everything I might done wrong
Help you light a cigarette
Left a burn on my favorite sweater, what a waste
Yeah
Well, can you see it now?
I’m onto better things
But I keep you around safe inside my head
So roll the windows down like you used to
Driving me 'round town
[Chorus]
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, you wouldn’t even know
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, wouldn’t even know
[Post-Chorus]
And you could buy this whole town if you wanted
Couldn’t dry my eyes if you tried
I’m so far away just like you wanted
Mastering the art of getting by
[Bridge]
Well, it’s over now, I see
Wore my best dress on my worst day
It’s getting crystal clear
You don’t belong with me
Built a picture in my head
Now it’s torn in tiny pieces
What a violent fantasy
I read too into this
[Chorus]
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, you wouldn’t even know
Newfound city where I sleep alone
But you wouldn’t even know, you wouldn’t even know
And you could buy this whole town if you wanted
Couldn’t dry my eyes if you tried
I’m so far away just like you wanted
Mastering the art of getting by
[Outro]
But I don't care, I don't care now
(But you wouldn't even know, know, know)
