It's been a long time coming, but

I've gotten used to the way it never sleeps

Don't wanna say I love it, but

I've gotten used to the way this city breathes

And I've called you so many times

Saying, "I want to leave"

Ooh

It's been a long time coming, but

I've gotten used to the way it never snows

Don't wanna say I love it, but

I've gotten used to secrets that it knows

And I've called you so many times

Saying I want to come home

But tonight I think that maybe I'd stay

If only you didn't live so far away

And tonight, I think that this could be great

If only you werеn't miles and miles away

I could love this city, if I stayеd

But I could love you, if I left today
