Street by Street

This view used to bring A smile to my face Lately it's done nothing but Remind me of the way The way that you used to Give me butterflies Took me twenty-one days to Walk our former paradise Paradise Step by step, brick by brick I'm reclaiming what's mine This city is way too small To give away to just one guy Street by street, breath by breath From the Back Bay to the sky I'm taking back my city I'm Taking back my life The cafe Where you asked me for my name The bookstore we spent Five hours hiding from the rain It's like a game of monopoly Except I steal back all my property And leave you on the ground And I know that I'll see you one day on the street With a girl on your arm but I won't let that keep me from this town From this town, from this town, oh Step by step, brick by brick I'm reclaiming what's mine This city is way too small To give away to just one guy Street by street, breath by breath From the Back Bay to the sky I'm taking back my city I'm taking back my life I'm taking back my city --- Street by Street - Laufey
