The City Has Lost All It's Charm Lyrics

Well I liked it here in the Winter
when everything felt new
and I could wear my raincoat
and my winter shoes
and the nights by the window
watching the taxis go
and listening to the language
and the voices below

But all of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm
and I feel like a stranger resting here in her arms
All of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm

Well the tourists they walk slow
down all the old avenues
chasing the ghost of 1922
oh but how can I say
that I’m not just the same
that that same nostalgia
doesn’t darken my days

and all of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm
and I feel like a stranger resting here in her arms
All of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm

and Mathilda she is so pretty
and she’s doing so well
but her ambition is ugly
she’s just out for herself
And she measures success
by the jealously of those she calls friends
and it just brings me down
knowing I’m one of them

All of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm
and I feel like a stranger resting here in her arms
All of a sudden the city has lost all it’s charm
