[Lyrics]
(1) I never liked this apple much
(2) It always seemed too big to touch
(1) I can't remember how I found
(3) My way before she came around
I tell (4) everyone
I smile just because
I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia
And I (5) can't remember life before her name
(1) She keeps a toothbrush at my place
(2) As if I had the extra space
(1) She steals my clothes to wear to work
(3) I know - her hairs are on my shirts
I tell (4) everyone
I smile just because
I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia
And I (5) can't remember life before
(6) The day
She called up and came to me
Covered in rain
And dinnertime shadowing
(7) And as her clothes spun, we spooned
And I knew I was through
When I said "I love you"
[Solo]
(8) Friday evening, we've been drinking
2 AM, I swear I might propose
but we close the tab
split a cab
and call each other up when we get home
(9) falling asleep to the sound
of sirens
(4) I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia
(4) From the battery
To the gallery
It's the kind of thing you only see
In scented, glossy magazines
(5) And I can't remember life before her name
(10)
