I think it was 2016
New York City, baby
And you wanted me
But you had a girlfriend back in Cambridge
So to the tune of eggshells breaking
You walked me to the train
But years down the line
We hit right place, we hit right time
You laid your body into mine
Then let me be
So I'll go and live beside the ocean
You'll do the city you've been doing
I tried to dream away the reason you won't call
Did I mean anything to you at all
I know you've got your reasons, I heard
There's another girl
In the city
And I know you saw my friend the other day
I only know because she said so,
You never told me
But I don't wanna do
Any back and forth with you
All this bad news makes pretty views too much for me
So I'll go and live beside the ocean
You'll do the city you've been doing
I tried to dream away the reason you won't call
Did I mean anything to you at all
So I'll give you your space
And I'll stay a vacation
Everyday's a lot to give me, huh?
And I'll live by the ocean
You'll walk to work each morning
I'm not someone you'd take serious, huh?
But I wish I was
So I'll go and live beside the ocean
You'll do the city you've been doing
I tried to dream away the reason you won't call
Did I mean anything to you at all
