[Verse 1] I took the long way in With gum and a ripped-up map Crosswalks kept changing lanes And the buses never came back A fruit stand flashed green pears A dog barked at my shoes I laughed at the wrong street And I still missed you [Pre-Chorus] Every corner felt like a dare Every window said, "stay there" My name got small in the air But I was still right here [Chorus] I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city) I got lost, but I’m fine (Yeah, I’m fine, I’m fine) Turn me around, baby I’ll find my way by midnight I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city) [Verse 2] A taxi splashed my jeans At the corner store glow I followed a flute player Through the steam from the road Your voice on my voicemail Kept cracking at the seam I pressed it to my ear Like a secret in a dream [Pre-Chorus] Every sign looked the same Every train said another name I kept my heart in the frame And walked into the rain [Chorus] I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city) I got lost, but I’m fine (Yeah, I’m fine, I’m fine) Turn me around, baby I’ll find my way by midnight I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city) [Bridge] Then I saw your blue scarf On a bike near the square Or maybe I imagined it But I didn’t even care The whole block started spinning Like a record on glass I was never really missing I was learning how to pass [Final Chorus] I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city) I got lost, but I’m fine (Yeah, I’m fine, I’m fine) Turn me around, baby I’ll find my way by midnight I got lost in the city (Oh, lost in the city)
