This Town - C.J. Ramone

Waking up to kiss you and nobody's there The smell of your perfume still stuck in the air It's hard Yesterday I thought I saw your shadow running 'round It's funny how things never change in this old town So far From the stars And I want to tell you everything The words I never got to say the first time around And I remember everything From when we were the children playing in this fairground Wish I was there with you now If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you I saw that you moved on with someone new In the pub that we met he's got his arms around you It's so hard So hard And I want to tell you everything The words I never got to say the first time around And I remember everything From when we were the children playing in this fairground Wish I was there with you now If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you You still make me nervous when you walk in the room Them butterflies, they come alive when I'm next to you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you I know that it's wrong That I can't move on But there's something 'bout you If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you You still make me nervous when you walk in the room Them butterflies, they come alive when I'm next to you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you Everything comes back to you

City lights are pointing at me I close my eyes to see what you see Smoke cleared it took my breath away I crossed all seven different oceans To gather every perfect moment The brightest stars are falling down Oh love it's easy You should believe me Tonight the land of the lost belongs to me Running with my eyes shut somewhere in between In this town This town Miles away But still around Feeling the sun beneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around City lights are trying to catch me Open my eyes to see the beauty Falling stars are coming alive Oh love it's easy You should believe me In this town This town Miles away but still around Feeling the sun beneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around Black and white Blinding lights Here inside With me tonight Tonight the land of the lost belongs to me Running with my eyes shut somewhere in between In this town This town Miles away but still around Feeling the sun bneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around This town This town

Tell me babe Wanna leave this town I'm saying Love her if you wanna go I'm down (I'm down) Cuz darling we were made for bigger things (Bigger things) And this place keeps killing our dreams Let's go love I'm saying ain't you tired of waiting We could leave this whole place behind Let's go love I'm saying ain't you tired of waiting We could leave this whole place behind Tell me babe Do you wanna stay I'm so fucked up And I'm fading away (Fading away) See I got nothing to do but chill But i think that you could be real Losing myself over you I mean I've got nothing better to do (I-I-I) I just want you (I-I-I) To come through and (I-I-I) Put me back together See I remember days like that And I remember times when I had your ass like Like that Like that Like that Yeah your love is a conflict Locked up like convict And these problems are chronic But just say the word I'll solve it Tired of your ways Send another text I'll be over soon Pull up to my place Open up the door And come up to my room Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Now you see naturally There's nobody like me (Nobody like me) There's no one like me (Nobody like me) I'll set you free

This town is a lonely town Not the only town like-a this town This town is a make-you town Or a break-you-town and bring-you-down town This town is a quiet town Or a riot town like this town This town is a love-you town And a shove-you-down and push-you-'round town This town is an all-right town For an uptight town like-a this town This town, it's a use-you town An abuse-you town until-you're-down town This town is a losin' town It's a miserable town It's a nowhere town And I am leavin' this town You better believe that I'm leavin' this town Man, it could never be uptown It's bound to be downtown This town, bye-bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye-bye

You're dead, but the world keeps spinning Take a spin through the world you left It's gettin' dark a little too early Are you missing the dearly bereft? Takin' flight and you could be here tomorrow Takin' flight, well, you could get here tonight (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) What? I'm gonna fly on down, then fly away Well, all right Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down Takin' a spin through the neighborhood The neighbors scream, "Whatchya talking 'bout?" 'Cause they don't know how to let you in And I can't let you out What if I was not your only friend in this world? Can you take me where you're goin' if you're never comin' back? (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) I'm gonna fly on down then fly away, on my way Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down Why don't we take a ride, away, up high through the neighborhood? Up over the billboards and the factories and smoke (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) Yeah! I'm gonna fly on down, then fly away on my way Fly away Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down

Three angels on my shoulder I'm always lookin' over Three angels on my shoulder there for life When they put me in my grave I know I will be saved by three angels waitin' on the other side Johnny said life's though so you gotta be thougher Gotta keep your eyes on the prize Cause there's ain't nobody else lookin' out for you And it doesn't pay to sit and wonder why They're all just tryin' to get somethin' from you You know they'll only drag you down Be smart with your money 'cause it really isn't funny From where you're standing it's a long way down Three angels on my shoulder I'm always lookin' over Three angels on my shoulder there for life When they put me in my grave I know I will be saved by three angels waitin' on the other side You gotta find a little piece of peace everyday Joey told me with a little smile I could see it in his eyes, through his rose tinted glasses That that's the way he tried to live his life Don't make no excuses for who or what you are You don't owe nobody anyway And don't let yourself get caught up in the struggles Everybody tries to pull you into everyday Three angels on my shoulder I'm always lookin' over Three angels on my shoulder there for life When they put me in my grave I know I will be saved by three angels waitin' on the other side By three angels waitin' on the other side And Dee Dee, my brother, you were unlike any other A talent that is truly hard to find A poet from the street, you were angry, you were sweet Patron saint of the lower east side And I know you tried hard to be a good Dee Dee I know you tried hard, no doubt But I got to tell you something, I know it in my heart You're only gone because you let the bad Dee Dee out Three angels on my shoulder I'm always lookin' over Three angels on my shoulder there for life When they put me in my grave I know I will be saved by three angels waitin' on the other side By three angels waitin' on the other side By three angels waitin' on the other side
