lyrics

JASON:
So that I get this straight, tell me why I need you.
So that I get this straight, tell me what I don't know.
I'm fine, in fact I'm thriving here.
It's fine, go on and disappear
without me.

I knew something was missing here.
How can you miss someone who's never there.
I'm just crazy.
But let it fall, down on me.

You are scared and I was too,
but you're so much stronger than this.
You're prepared and I'll meet you.
Some things we're never ready for.
For now, won't you take a minute
quiet down your heart, what is in it?

KELLY:
I heard that you're leaving.
It's strange to be grieving
for someone to never come into your life at all.

JASON:
It's still your decision
and with cloudy vision
you might not greet the ones you'll meet with love
answer the call.

A life in the city.
To survive in the city
You'll thrive in the city
So arrive in the city.

UNKNOWN:
A life in the city...

JASON:
Lisa...

TOM:
Her name is Lisa Knolls.

SARAH:
We loved you so so long.

CLINT:
Will I ever see her again?

KELLY:
I won't let you down.

LISA:
I'll make my decision
and it will be
without supervision
I can hardly believe that I'm holding
this ticket now.
A life in the city is a life without.
