Prohibition City

How'd it go
That you had it all but you didn't know
You're thinking fast but you move too slow
Telling lies was never your thing
But baby it should have been

The dust is gone
It reared its head where it don't belong
I should have left but I took too long
I'm spinning backwards and digging in
(For the long haul)

A city short of alcohol
Where lovers dream
And dreamers fall
Call the doctor for a friend
He can try but he can't mend

I came up short
Too many times to start again
Too many times to still be friends
I've seen this film a dozen times
And still don't like it

But I'll say I do
Maybe we'll smile for the night
We know we won't but hey we might
Telling lies was never my thing
But maybe should have been

A city short of alcohol
Where lovers bleed
And dreamers fall
Call the doctor for a friend
I'm tryna heal
I'm tryna heal us
I'm tryna heal us again
