This City

People ask me where's the best place for lunch And honestly, I don't know And people say, "Just head to Meridian Street" But I don't know how to go Come Friday night, I don't even have my own car So I'll stay in, who would have thunk Cause I'm wearing scarlet in a sea of blue And my friends drink to get drunk Am I in a foreign land? Or am I the foreigner? My hometown or a stranger, I'm not sure And I've lived here all my life The place where I was born But you make this city a home I never knew about that restaurant up north The one that's close by your house We ate lunch there, and then we went to that thrift shop The one that I just heard about Am I in a foreign land? Or am I the foreigner? My hometown or a stranger, I'm not sure And I've lived here all my life The place where I was born But you make this city a home If you'll let me, I'd like to spend the night with you Even maybe two or more, if that's cool And I've realized that I've been such a fool Cause home's not a place, it's people, too Am I in a foreign land? Or am I the foreigner? My hometown or a stranger, I'm not sure And I've lived here all my life The place where I was born But you make this city a home You make this city our home
