Sunset City Lyrics - The Magnetic Fields

Well, I don't care what people say 

Life is too short to hang around 

So I stay so long in a place 

And then move on to the next town 

Oh, Sunset City 

I've got to see the world 

Don't hold me too tightly 

Don't whisper my name 

Sad-eyed, baby 

I'm not that kind of girl 

When the dice stop rolling 

There's no more to the game 

When the time comes to say goodbye 

And in the morning I'll be gone 

For other towns and other lives 

I'll catch the first train, bag in hand 

And I won't miss you, and you won't cry 

Oh, Sunset City 

I've got to see the world 

Don't hold me too tightly 

Don't whisper my name 

Sad-eyed, baby 

I'm not that kind of girl 

When the dice stop rolling 

There's no more to the game 

When the time comes to say goodbye 

Oh, Sunset City 

I've got to see the world 

Don't hold me too tightly 

Don't whisper my name 

Sad-eyed, baby 

I'm not that kind of girl 

When the dice stop rolling 

There's no more to the game
