Skyline Songtext

Skyline Songtext
I was wandering through midtown when you caught my eye
I looked at people looking up at you
All the time I spent so close to you and now it′s through
You're the wall but, honey, I′m the fly
I thought I knew all the sides of you
From this distance there are things that finally make some sense
I can see why this appeals to you
All the people looking up at you have no clue
Whereas I know acts in confidence
I thought I knew all the sides of you
But I get it now
And I can't say that I'm surprised
You′ve got it down
You skipped the race but won the prize
You′re part of the skyline now
I was thumbing through a magazine mindlessly When I caught you staring back at me
Until recently I got to see your face for free
Sleep was all it cost to take you home with me
When I knew all the sides of you
But I get it now
You've got to make the ends meet
You′ve got it now
Advancing to a calculated retreat
You're part of the skyline
Yeah, I get it now
I guess I knew it all along
You′ve got it now
And no one left who knows you're wrong
You′re part of the skyline
Part of the skyline now
I looked at people looking up at you
All the time I spent so close to you and now it′s through
You're the wall but, honey, I′m the fly
I thought I knew all the sides of you
From this distance there are things that finally make some sense
I can see why this appeals to you
All the people looking up at you have no clue
Whereas I know acts in confidence
I thought I knew all the sides of you
But I get it now
And I can't say that I'm surprised
You′ve got it down
You skipped the race but won the prize
You′re part of the skyline now
I was thumbing through a magazine mindlessly When I caught you staring back at me
Until recently I got to see your face for free
Sleep was all it cost to take you home with me
When I knew all the sides of you
But I get it now
You've got to make the ends meet
You′ve got it now
Advancing to a calculated retreat
You're part of the skyline
Yeah, I get it now
I guess I knew it all along
You′ve got it now
And no one left who knows you're wrong
You′re part of the skyline
Part of the skyline now
