about

This song did not originally appear on the Cityhands CD.

lyrics

I’ll trade you songs on the floor of a basement
where the ground’s covered with sweat from the bands that were playing
we seem to be on the same page
despite the distance from here to Iowa, or anywhere I’ve stayed

I’ll sleep right here tonight, in a city that I call my own
Tomorrow it might be a trip out west or another visit to a home
in a place that I’ve never seen, or never guessed
where I can drink free booze and bum cigarettes
until the sun begins to rise out East.

I’ll give you advice but you don’t have to take it
Because there’s a hundred ways to fuck up, and you learn to anticipate it
We seem to sing in the same ways
despite the years I’ve struggled through and the ones that you might face

I’ll sleep right here tonight, in a city that I call my own
Tomorrow it might be a trip out west or another visit to a home
in a place that I’ve never seen, or never guessed
where I can drink free booze and bum cigarettes
until the sun begins to rise out East.

It’s strange that these songs are related
between cowboy shirts and tattoos and voices that must hate us
I bet we’ll meet again one day
probably somewhere in New Jersey, or in a truck stop far away.

I’ll sleep right here tonight, in a city that I call my own
Tomorrow it might be a trip out West or visit to a home
in a place that I’ve never seen, or never guessed
as future memories cement the ways we could have been
until the sun begins to rise out East.
