Lyrics
I know this city make you compromise
I acknowledge that living in this city forces compromises.
I got your back if you got mine
I support you if you support me.
You'll be pretty, I'll be bored to life
You'll look attractive, and I'll feel unenthusiastic about life.
I got no robe but I got time
I don't have luxuries, but I have time.
Yeah, I'll wait for you in this lonely town
I will patiently wait for you in this desolate town.
I'll be on my own while you stay away
I will be by myself while you are absent.
Yeah, I'll wait for you in this lonely town
Reiteration: I will wait for you in this lonely town.
I'll be on my own while you sail away
