The City That Day
Matt Skiba
Saw you standing there holding my heart,
Too many drinks pulled the words apart.
But I got your name, remembered it,
Dumbfounded, I'm dumb as shit.
I'm just glad I went,
To the city that day.
And I saw you standing there all alone,
For some reason you're holding two coats.
I asked you, "Do you need a hand?"
You said, "No thanks, I've got other plans."
I'm just glad I went,
To the city that day
And I saw him wake up on the sidewalk,
His next drink was the topic of talk.
He said, "Give me something quick and sweet,
My whole life I've lived on the street."
I'm just glad I went,
To the city that day.
