He Told Her the City Was Killing Him

歌詞

He told her the city was killing him Everyone was stacked in a row She was thirty five years old He was the first man she ever fell in with The first man she ever lived with Her friends told her it was a mistake But she quit her job and used the money she'd saved They packed up her car and drove To the dessert and the new used out home She got a job in a bank He got drunk one night and threw a chair at her while she was sleeping Now she's staring out the window getting old Such a price to pay for not wanting to live alone She never knew where he'd go But he was hardly ever home And he said the dessert was killing him So they packed her car and moved They pick up and start again They'd fall apart and start again Lose a job and start again Get bruised up and start again Now she's staring out the window getting old Such a price to pay Now she's staring out the window getting old Such a price to pay for not wanting to be alone
