Alone in the City Lyrics

Lonely in the summer in the City

Business district empty

Everybody gone to some beach

I'm alone with tourists and melting buildings

Everyone is with family

Everyone is crushing on some boy, giggling

Everyone is wrapped up in love

Drinking something fruity in the sun

But I'm alone in the city

Lonely in the summer in the city

Yearning for some love and some friendship

Mindless fun, simple pleasures, like dumb kids

But I was born to explore the depth of being

Shivering from the cold of loneliness

In the middle of a crippling august heat

The odd nostalgie for things that were never meant to be

I'm free, alone in the city

I'm starting to think not belonging is a form of belonging

Slightly on the outside and out of sync

I'm where I'm meant to be, alone in the city

Yearning for some love and some friendship

Mindless fun, simple pleasures, like dumb kids

But I was born to explore the depth of being

The depth, the depth, the depth of being

The depth, the depth, the depth, the depth, the depth

I'm where I'm meant to be, alone in the City
