And a head full of ache, and a heart full of pity, fell in love with a girl from the city
Is he a better man than I can be
She's into him, she's not into me
So smitten now, but out of reach
She's got a thing that they can't teach
And I'm hypnotized by her eyes so pretty, I fell in love with a girl from the city
And she lives in a different neighborhood
I'd call her up but it'd do no good
And we haven't spoken in a while
And she looks at the window on the skyline
A cathedral built in ancient times
With shops and store i've haven't heard of
And the traffic jam, and the mornin rush
And the men in suits rushing for the bus
And the voices echo down the street
But I been lookin at the world through my window and the misty panes of glass
And holdin on with out-streched arms for the things we fail to grasp
Cause the distance won't change the way I feel, hook line and sinker, caught on the reel
And a head full of ache and a heart full of pity
I fell in love with a girl from the city
Is he a better man than I could be, She's into him, She's not into me
So smitten now but out of reach
She's got a thing that they can't teach
And I'm hypnotized by her eyes so pretty, I fell in love with a girl from the city
And I'm just a quiet guy with a quiet life
She's from the city where it's all high rise
And the crime fills the news through tinted glass and twisted views
And now she's leavin town and I don't suppose I'll see her round
But I guess that's the price I paid, but kissing her is the best mistake I've made
With her hair so blond and her eyes so blue, lips so red, what could I do
A voice so soft but she's with him and that's one fight that I can't win
And I hope, I hope he knows, I hope he never lets her go
He's a lucky man and I hope he knows, I hope he never lets her go
And a head full of ache, and a heart full of pity, fell in love with a girl from the city
Is he a better man than I can be
She's into him, she's not into me
So smitten now, but out of reach
She's got a thing that they can't teach
And I'm hypnotized by her eyes so pretty, I fell in love with a girl from the city
I been sittin on my own waitin for her to come home
