December's not the same in the city and you had me worried how you'd stay warm
For me it was a bottle of whiskey and burning all the letters that you left under my door
And I stumbled home at night
Like I will stumble through the rest of my life
But you always told me to be stable, so I tried to be fine
But I had to get away, so I jumped on the first jet plane to anyplace
And I found myself in London by New Years day
On Shaftesbury Avenue where nobody knew my name
And I did a thousand things
That I would have never dreamed
But you always told me to be impulsive, a little more carefree
So I raced to the mountains while your train rolled to the coast
Our heads and hearts and eyes were heavy
Because the closest we could be was the other side of the screen where I watch your life play out now without me
And I can't keep my mind off those eyes
So I will stumble home at night, I will do it all a thousand times
Because December's not the same in the city, so just tell me, tell me who is keeping you warm.
Flawless melodies, arrangements, and lyrics. Listen to Animal Flag, fall in love, and be one of the hipsters to know them before they're huge. Duh. Jessica Lynn
