9 (The City) Lyrics by Why Isaac

19 the Fear

2021

[Intro]
One further wrong
Haven awaits
One further song
Haven awaits
We are found, we are found
[Verse]
Some lonely summer day I thought I’d found you
I thought I’d found you there but I was wrong (I believe)
I was wrong (But I was wrong)
[Improvised Truth]
Ooh
Ooh
Sing
I wish for another day
I wish for another day
I wish for another day
And I wish for another day
Those fateful days, those summer afternoons when we were young
Those fateful days, those summer afternoons when we were young
I remembеr it all
I remember it all
Said I rеmember it all
And I’ll remember it still
When I’m lying in the dirt
Yeah I’ll remember you still
My mama said that you
Would always find another way
My mama told me when you left
“We live to see another day”
About the time you went to me
Is when I left you in the dust
And then I thought that it was love
But maybe it was only lust
And then I thought that it was love
But maybe it was only lust
And then I thought that it was love
But maybe loving isn’t just
And then I thought that it was love
But maybe loving isn’t just
Waiting to waste your life away
Ahh
Ahh
[Chorus]
When the world's end is over
Take me to the city
When the world's end is over
Take me to the city
It's where I belong
It's where I belong
It's where I belong
[Improvised Truth]
When we were young and we were
High on the highs of life
Nothing could stop us then
We were so good, you and I
Those summer afternoons when we were young
And the summer nights when we were young
In the empty fields
I remember leaving Haven
And I never wanted to go
I remember leaving Haven behind and taking you
I only took my heart, I took my mind, I took my truth
Didn’t know how to leave you
‘Cause I never wanted to leave
When truth it will defeat you
Maybe lies can set me free
And I’m young
Only nineteen
Yet so far from home
Haven was all I need
And I don’t understand how I could
Take it so for granted when I was there
I didn’t know what I had
I didn’t know what I would miss
I thought that it was summer love
It was just a summer kiss
And maybe years from now I will remember
Maybe years from now I will remember
How it felt on those summer afternoons
For now I spend my evenings missing you
Yeah for now I spend summer evenings missing you
Summer evenings turn a shade of blue
And now there’s nothing I can do
I spend my evenings missing you
[Outro]
I will hold onto this forever
I will hold onto this forever
I will hold onto this forever
