City Love - Priscilla Renea

Wanted to be where you were

New to the town

This little country girl packed her bags

She up and went

So she could be where her heart lived

She ain’t know no better

Thought that it would last forever

But she ended up getting hurt

Regretted leaving home

Wished that she had known

As soon as she got there

He would be long gone

But she said

It’s too late to turn back

No, I don’t wanna go home now

But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby can you slow it down

Please pump the brakes, don’t speed

I’ve got miles and miles of love

Ain’t no need to try to rush

We gon' get there just the same

Why don’t we map out the way?

Living in this city love, this city love

City love’s too fast for the country

Ohhh la la la la la la

It’s too fast for the country

Ohhh la la la la la la

Convinced herself not to cry

It’s not her fault they don’t see eye to eye

She can’t turn back 'cause they all think

She should’ve stayed home from the beginning

She’s gonna prove em wrong

Even if it takes her too long

To find herself a new love

Far away from home

Wished that she had known

The moment she got there

He would be long gone

But she said

It’s too late to turn back

No, I don’t wanna go home now

But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby can you slow it down

Please pump the brakes, don’t speed

I’ve got miles and miles of love

Ain’t no need to try to rush

We gon' get there just the same

Why don’t we map out the way?

Living in this city love, this city love

City love’s too fast for the country

She didn’t know what to do She had nothing left to lose

She was lost, so confused

Out of her element, so heartbroken

Decided to let it go Nowhere she could turn to, nowhere else to go No way to pull through, nothing to hold to Where else could she be?

What else could she do?

She said

It’s too late to turn back

No, I don’t wanna go home now

But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby won’t you slow it down

Please pump the brakes, don’t speed

I’ve got miles and miles of love

Ain’t no need to try to rush

We gon' get there just the same

Why don’t we map out the way?

Living in this city love, this city love

City love’s too fast for the country

Ohhh la la la la la la

It’s too fast for the country

Ohhh la la la la la la

I’ve got miles and miles of love

Ain’t no need to try or rush

We gon' get there just the same

Why don’t we map out the way?

You ain’t in the city, love

This city love

City love’s too fast for the country
