City Of Lakes Lyrics - Singles - Matt Mays

This pavement feels cold on my face 

And my bones have seen better days 

Be a friend, pick me up off the ground 

Nice and easy, oooh 

I got a scar, you can see it from afar 

Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar 

If you wish me luck, don't tell me to break a leg 

I coulda been walking on a peg 

And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes 

Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

I got a girl, she got lots of style 

You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles 

She's prettier than you, and you, and you 

Yeah, she's prettier than you 

I got a dream, I hope that it comes true 

And if it don't, don't know what I'm gonna do 

I got a dream, I got a dream 

And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes 

Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

I lost a friend here in this past year 

I miss his guitar playing in my ear 

Be a friend, take away all my fears 

Nice and easy, nice and easy, nice and easy
