Lyrics:
I hate the traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge
Dead in the backseat
Waiting it out
Listening to "something"
Unload the bass and the amplifiers
Barely make it to the stage because the doorman's got my I.D, oh
A couple faces look familiar to me
I see you walkin in your red coat lookin like an actress
I asked around
You're a roommate of a friend of mine
I asked around
You're a roommate of a friend of mine
After a couple awkward stares from the stage
I wanna meet you on the sidewalk and follow where you're goin
We stand around and see our breath in the wind
You're so lovely in the snow, I'll bet you're lovely in the summer time
You walk ahead but you won't leave me behind
It's plain and simple girl I'm gonna get to know you
We share your wine from the bottle in the city lights
I asked around you're a roommate of a friend of mine
Oh the city lights inhale me now
Oh the city lights inhale me now
I hear the echo of a DJ down on Avenue A
I chase the music cos I wanna see you dancing
Still can't believe all the funny things I hear you say
To those working men yelling dirty things to you
It's getting late still I don't know you at all
About to walk right into knowin you forever
We share your wine from the bottle in the city lights
I asked around you're a roommate of a friend of mine
Oh the city lights inhale me now
Oh the city lights inhale me now
Oh the city lights inhale me now
Oh the city lights
Take me any night
To the city
To the city
To the city
To the city lights
About Tom Moran :
When singer/songwriter Tom Moran makes reference to scenes like being stuck in traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge, he’s not trying to get you to imagine yourself in a romanticized version of the Big Apple. He's just a person trying to get home. And in the rare instances where famous landmarks appear on his full-length debut Roommate of a Friend of Mine, Moran strips away the glow of coolness that so often enshrouds them, making space for the kind of quiet introspection we rarely associate with the metropolitan grind. Roommate of a Friend of Mine is an album that very much points you back down to earth with songs that find their way to wherever you happen to be, to hit you where you live in every sense of the term. One can feel out of place—and learn how to find one’s place—anywhere. And it’s between those two poles of experience that a lifetime’s worth of highly relatable, almost beautifully mundane, interactions unfolds across the ten slice-of-life turns of rippling folk-pop the album showcases.
