I never liked this apple much 
It always seemed too big to touch 
I can't remember how I found 
My way before she came around  

I tell everyone 
I smile just because 
I've got a city love 
I found it in Lydia 
And I can't remember life before her name  

She keeps a toothbrush at my place 
As if I had the extra space 
She steals my clothes to wear to work 
I know - her hairs are on my shirts 

I tell everyone 
I smile just because 
I've got a city love 
I found it in Lydia 
And I can't remember life before  
The day 
She called up and came to me 
Covered in rain 
And dinnertime shadowing 
And as her clothes spun, we spooned 
And I knew I was through 
When I said "I love you"  

Friday evening, we've been drinking 
2 AM, I swear I might propose 
but we close the tab 
split a cab 
and call each other up when we get home 
falling asleep to the sound 
of sirens  

I've got a city love 
I found it in Lydia  

From the battery 
To the gallery 
It's the kind of thing you only see 
In scented, glossy magazines  

And I can't remember life before her name
