Lyrics Different Cities - Vandaveer

Different Cities

I live in a different city
I have friends in other cities
I’m not searching for pity so much
No, it' just they’re a good bunch
If I could pick them all up and set them down
I’d dropped them gently in my new town
Washington, Columbia
Home to congressmen and wealthy senators
Full of hope, full of pride
Full of everything I cast aside
If I could pick them all up and put them down
I’d send them packing to their hometowns
I’d call my friends and throw a party
Toast our lives and our good fortune
We’d sing songs, we’d tell stories
Set up camp and start a new country
And if I could ring them up and invite them down
We’d talk all night and watch the sunrise
I live in different cities
And I have friends in other cities
I live in different cities
And I have friends in so many cities
