Ellie Goulding - In My City lyrics

rate me

And if I ever had a wish in the whole world

I would’ve listened to my brother when he spoke to me

And I never would’ve played with my conscience

And it feels well worth in their company

But you gave me wings and I used them

I used them I used them on my youth

And you gave me wings and I used them

I used them and I don’t wanna lose them

Now I found my feet count to 1, 2, 3

And I’m taking off tonight, now I’m free

As I walk my feet on the cold dark green

And I and I and I

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going ... dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city

Running down the streets in my new town

With the lights blinding, near my halfway down

I think I'd get that jealousy and people’s thunder

But the folks back home I’ll make them vouch

You gave me wings and I used them

I used them I used them on my youth

Yeah you gave me wings and I used them

I used them I don’t wanna lose them

I don’t wanna lose them

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going ... dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city

Shoulders ache for want of wings

My city shakes, the fear in me

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city

I follow my needs for my, for my city

We’re going ... dream in my, in my city

And that’s where I’ll stay

And that’s where I’ll stay

In my city
