we run in my city

and you gave me wings and i used them
  i used them, and i won’t lose them

now i found my feet, count to 1, 2, 3

i can feel my dreams when i’m in my city
  i fall on my knees for my, for my city
we’re going off the dream in my, in my city
and that’s where i’ll stay
and that’s where i’ll stay
in my city

rolling down the streets in my new town
with the lights blinding and my heart played down
  ithink i’ll get a job with stealing people’s thunder
but the folks back home i’ll make them vouch

shoulders ache for wanted wings
my city shakes, the fear in me

  i can feel my dreams when i’m in my city
  i fall on my knees for my, for my city

ellie goulding, in my city
