 There’s a harvest  each  Saturday  night
 At the bars  filled with  perfume  and hitching  a ride
A  place  you can stand for one night  and get gone
 And It’s clear  this conversation ain’t  doing a  thing
 Cause these boys  only  listen to me  when I sing
 And I  don’t feel like singing  tonight
 All the same  songs
 In these  deep city lights
 Girl could get lost  tonight
 I’m finding  every reason  to be gone
 Nothing here to  hold on to
 Could I hold  you?
 X2
 The situation’s  always the same
 
 You  got your wolves in their clothes whispering Hol- ly- wood’s name
 Stealing  gold from the silver they see
 But it’s  not me
 (Chorus)
  Calling  out "some  body save me" I feel like I’m fading away
Am  I gone?
  Calling  out  somebody save  me I feel like I’m fading
 X2
Mmm No, no,  no
No, no,  no
No, no, no
 No, oh
 Ending Chorus
 Deep city lights
 Girl could get lost  tonight
 I’m finding  every reason  to be gone
 And there's nothing  here to  hold  on to
 Could I hold  on  to
you?
 x2
 Hope you enjoy it!
