[Verse 1]
I'm in Johsua Tree tryna find a new me
I'll admit I haven't really been myself too much lately
In a place where I live, I can't walk down the street
I'm reminded at you through the places we eat
Say you want your distance, you say you need space
But maybe it's the distance that's been pushing us away
Everythign here just reminds me of hwo much has changed
Now I can't stay
[Chorus]
When the lights go down in your city tonight
I hope you think of me like I think of you
When the lights go down in your city tonight
I hope you think of me like I dream you do
I've been skipping town, I had to get away from us
I've been meeting diffеrent girls, I've been trying differеnt drugs
But it's not, oh it's not
It's not the same, it's not the same
[Verse 2]
I'll be in Nashville next week, my best friend's getting married
I've been getting older and life is getting scary
I'd love to show you this car I just bought
We'd hit the one on one and we'd just drop the top
Wish that I could find the words to right all of my wrongs
But time keeps moving forward, it shows me what's gone
The last girl I ghosted still haunts me
I liked her but I just weren't ready to move on
[Chorus]
When the lights go down in your city tonight
I hope you think of me like I think of you
When the lights go down in your city tonight
I hope you think of me like I dream you do
I've been skipping town, I had to get away from us
I've been meeting different girls, I've been trying different drugs
But it's not, oh it's not
It's not the same, it's not the same
[Verse 3]
I'll be in Phoenix next month, my friend Ken's turning thirty
Damn it just hit me, soon I will be too
I like that city yeah the view is real pretty
Something's still missing, won't be there with you
