Somewhere in Springfield
She parks the car
A little too far from the curb
Sits in the silence
Head in her hands
Wonders what’s happening to her

She thought it’d be easy
At the time it sounded so right

Baby the city’s so lonely
Lately the lights seem so bright
And on the outside everyone’s smiling
But we’re all just trying to get by

Down here on Broadway
Life moves so fast
Nobody asks how you’re doing
Step off the subway
People rush past
I guess they’re just trying to keep moving

Makes me wonder
Who they run to when the sun’s going down

Baby the city’s so lonely
Lately the lights seem so bright
And on the outside everyone’s smiling
But we’re all just trying to get by

Are we better off broken or can we try
To put the pieces back together

Baby the city’s so lonely
And lately the lights seem so bright
On the outside everyone’s smiling
But we’re all just trying to get by
