I'm not saying I'm cold
_____
But autumn's early
_____
I sure recognize her here
The city you have to earn
_____
To wretched impostors
_____
The asphalt shines like gloss
_____
Under this f*cking drizzle
But bad-mouthing too much
_____
Whoever doesn't love her
_____
The dark rages of the Nor'wester
_____
A hundred shades of grey begin
_____
Yet always true to herself
_____
Like an old childhood friend
_____
But saying we love each other, that's another thing
Nothing's ever set in stone
_____
Each time it's the same baptism
_____
That we've been around
_____
Better not get cocky
_____
To your charming outbursts
_____
It's just to hug you tighter
_____
A hundred shades of grey begin
_____
Yet always true to herself
_____
Like an old childhood friend
_____
But saying we love each other, that's another thing
Nothing's ever set in stone
_____
Each time it's the same baptism
_____

We play like kids
_____
In a few waterproof spots
_____
With flawed strangers
_____
And we'll dance in the streets
_____
A hundred shades of grey begin
_____
Yet always true to herself
_____
Like an old childhood friend
_____
But saying we love each other, that's another thing
Nothing's ever set in stone
_____
Each time it's the same baptism
