Life In The City Lyrics - The Lumineers

Whooooa-whooooa 

Whooooa-whooooa 

And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island 

Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once? 

I knew the dream, it died 

JMZ line, Myrtle and Broadway 

But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once 

Whoa-whoa, living life in the city 

Whoa-whoa, it will never be pretty 

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh 

Whoa-whoa, we can plan if we make it 

Whoa-whoa, we won't let 'em 

They won't take it from me 

No-oh-oh, whoa 

Whooooa-whooooa 

Whooooa-whooooa

And if you leave, don't leave me all alone 

'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll be cold 

And I miss my dad, Cleopatra sitting on the phone 

So take me back off these streets and we'll never be apart 

Together from the start 

Never, never, falling back alone 

Oh-whoa, living life in the city 

Oh-whoa, it will never be pretty 

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh 

Oh-whoa, we can plan if we make it 

Oh-whoa, we won't let 'em 

They won't take it from me 

No-oh-oh, whoa 

And if the sun don't shine on me today 

And if the subways flood and bridges break 

Will you just lay down and dig your grave 

Or will you rail against the dying day
