City of Angels

Fighter jets all over my city, uh
Cool car trails in the skies, yeah
Its breaking news all over the TV
We were here, by surprise
Alright

I was at Townhouse down in Venice Beach, oh no
Stealin' moments with you know who, oh oh
We won the war but not a day goes by
That I don't think I should've be with you

When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
Yeah, I was busy letting you down, woman
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
I was nowhere to be found
Alright

A vast shadow cast over my city, uh-huh
Some kinda, unknown ship sittin' in the sky, now, ooh-ooh-ooh
I guess they came here looking for trouble
No time for goodbyes, oh

When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
I was busy letting you down, woman
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
And I was nowhere to be found
No, no, nowhere to be found
Nowhere honey, oh no

Drinking my favorite tequila, alright
You know I, saved your last message to my phone, woman
I didn't text you back that night, did I?
It just says, "Baby, when do you think you'll be home?" no no
I stayed behind when everyone left, left for Nevada
You know I, I stayed behind to search for your smile, oh no
Hoping to find you in the rubble
Hoping, that I could just hold you for a while

'Cause when the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
I was busy letting you down, woman
When the city of angels fell
When the city of angels fell
I was nowhere to be found
Alright
