A City For Me by Kaliyo Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We were young so barely done
Pushing through our bones
For the first time since I was a child
I wasn't alone

[Verse 2]
From your lips awakening
Something safe and warm
Dangling limbs you gave to me
Some sense of home
I never had known

[Chorus]
You were just holding me until I fell asleep
Like no one had done, since I was a baby

[Verse 3]
We were barely 17
You ran across the lawn
Panicked, with your shirt un-tucked
And no shoes on
Sir, I swear
We did nothing wrong
[Chorus]
You were just holding me until we fell asleep
Like no one had done, since I was a baby

[Bridge]
With you something unforeseen
Lining every street
Twisting limbs and arteries
A city for me
A way to be free within our walls
