This Town
anthony.love Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You made me feel like I was living in a movie
You made a million volts of energy go through me
The next morning it all got so weird
You absolutely disappeared
And now you're walking down the street as if you never knew me
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?
I traveled twenty seven hundred miles for your kiss
Now when I see you, you completely make me nervous
You took me back home to your apartment
We made love like you owed me two months' rent
Now it turns out that I was nothing but a tourist
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Forgive me if I thought that what we felt was real
You seem to shrug it off like it was no big deal
I'm sorry darling but that just isn't the way I feel
Maybe I'm giving what we did way too much value
We don't do things like what we did because we have to
I guess I'm blown away by how things went
You were absolutely heaven sent
I meet a girl like you, she's usually a statue
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?




Are all the girls in this town like you?
Are all the girls in this town like you?
