Nick Voelker - Lonelytown Lyrics

I told you that I'd never hold you down
But I hope that you'll be home when I come around
Can't tell you what it is, I gotta show you now
I don't wanna stay forever in this lonely town

This lonely town
This lonely town

I never wanted to be the one doubting
Never wanted to be alone
I put faith in validation
From everybody that I have known
Now, no names up on my phone
Nobody in my bed
Stay comfortable forever
I'd rather leave instead

I'd rather make a friend
Be awake again
Make a change and then break it in
Do something dangerous with a stranger just for the sake of it
Find love in enemies
My anemone
You've been quite the good friend to me
Hope you remember me
I remember you, I remember we

Were talking 'bout our wildest dreams and I

Told you that I'd never hold you down
But I hope that you'll be home when I come around
Can't tell you what it is, I gotta show you now
I don't wanna stay forever in this lonely town

This lonely town
This lonely town

I wanna lay by the ocean
Living life in slow motion
No commotion
Then I'll be in the city
Got the squad to mob with me
Dollar fifty a shot we got a few
Cool spot, but we're not staying for too
Long, I got a song to show to you
It goes - I'd rather not stress the mess that I'm going through

I'd rather make a friend
Be awake again
Make a change and then break it in
Do something dangerous with a stranger just for the sake of it
Find love in enemies
My anemone
You've been quite the good friend to me
Hope you remember me
I remember you, I remember we

Were talking 'bout our wildest dreams and I

Told you that I'd never hold you down
But I hope that you'll be home when I come around
Can't tell you what it is, I gotta show you now
I don't wanna stay forever in this lonely town

This lonely town
This lonely town

Gold pavement, I can't explain it
I don't wanna miss a thing
But I fear I'll miss more here while
Nothing is happening
We met down a familiar street
We were talking 'bout our wildest dreams, and I

Told you that I'd never hold you down
But I hope that you'll be home when I come around
Can't tell you what it is, I gotta show you now
I don't wanna stay forever in this lonely town

This lonely town
This lonely town
