And I was feeling dirty,
when I washed up in the rain,
I missed the 7:20, but I caught another train at 8.
Cuz I was sleeping with your bedroom walls,
asking them all the things you saw in me,
and there I lie, they reply Don't mean a thing,
Don't mean a thing,

My apartment in the city,
I always stay out late,
Always burning out the window,
at the stars above the lake,
I breathe out Chicago like its the last thing in my lungs, ohhh
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.

So what you think about that one,

Now you got a lot to lose now,
With a baby on the way,
Are you gonna give him my name,
or you could have found some better taste,
Instead of slumming with those downtown guys,
you got, down in guys with the way they say your name,
and I've always tried, the way you lie, is where I wanna be,

My apartment in the city,
I always stay out late,
Always burning out the window,
at the stars above the lake,
I breathe out Chicago like its the last thing in my lungs, ohhh
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.

My apartment in the city,
I always stay out late,
Always burning, burning, burning out that FUCKING window, baby,
and I breathe, and you leave, what you see is what you need, its what you need,
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
It's never love if it's the girl that your giving up.
