City Of Flowers

Pack your bags, we're leaving out of town

Wear that big black scarf wrapped around your pretty face

I'm not gonna stand here hopelessly, while I see you cry

Leave those mess, we'll jump into the car

Roll the windows down, get your senses back to you

And put out that cigarette, that thing will kill you slowly

And yeah, it only takes two hours from here

And yeah, when we get there, we'll write our brand new story

We're going to a place I know, where I was born

The city of flowers' been waiting so long

Life too short, you could've been shot

Remember this time, leave all your troubles behind

All your life you've waited for a time when that someone comes

To get your feet back on the ground

I'll be that someone to help just like in that Beatles song

So here we go, we're going to a place

At the rainbows end, to put some colors back on you

Let me be the gold, and I will put the shine on you

And yeah, we only have two exits to go

Yeah, when we get there the pages will start turning

We're going to a place I know, where I was born

The city of flowers' been waiting so long

Life too short, you could've been shot

Remember this time, leave all your troubles behind

And all the lies you heard before keep coming back to you

They linger on the places you longed to forget

Well, I won't lie, it won't be easy

Sometimes they're back knocking on your door

Now you tell them that you don't live here anymore

We're going to a place I know, where I was born

The city of flowers' been waiting so long

Life too short, you could've been shot

Remember this time, leave all your troubles behind

A place I know, where I was born

The city of flowers' been waiting so long

Life too short, we could've been shot

So remember this time, leave all your troubles behind
