I used to look for you out in the daylight I took highways and sidestreets and back lanes Slept under open skies Life can be cruel Life can be sweet if I want it to be This town that I once called home I just can't hold on to It's got bus stops and strip malls and people I would never even talk to She said life can be cruel But life is so sweet 'Cause I let it be Everybody out here They wanna live somewhere else I wish I could find a place And stay there by myself Bit by bit I swear I think I'm losing All this city's confidence
