lyrics

I miss the city at night
I miss the city at night
having a drink, get in a fight, i miss the city at night

I'll come see your show, buy a ticket even though you can't sing
and your songs are too slow, but I'll come & see your show

I miss the city at night
I miss the city at night
having a drink, get in a fight, I miss the city at night
It's been a long, long, lon, long, lonely year
How did we get from there to here
It's been a long, long, long, long, lonely night
But I love your black skies and your shimmering lights

You're crying and you're holding your shoes
sittin' on the curb like you do
there's nothing i can say to get through to you
crying and holding your shoes

I miss the city at night
I miss the city at night
having a drink, get in a fight, I miss the city at night

It's been a long, long, long, long, lonely year
How did we get from there to here
It's been a long, long, long, long, lonely night
But I love your black skies and your shimmering lights

But Imagine how it's gonna be
when they finally set us free
tears in the street, yours on me
imagine how it's gonna be

I miss the city at night
I miss the city at night
having a drink, get in a fight, I miss
tears in the street, yours on me
I miss the city at tonight

about

Whitehorse Toronto, Ontario

Ethereal folk, Space Cowboy twang. Psychedelic spaghetti western. Intergalactic blues grooves. Pop noir. Since their debut in 2011, Whitehorse has evolved from magnetic folk duo to full-blown rock band. In truth, Whitehorse is never fully either one or the other, but an ever-evolving creative partnership that challenges both artists to explore new instrumental & lyrical terrain with each project. ... more

Denim & Diamonds

I am not really an expert in today's country music. I know and appreciate Sheryl Crow or the Dixie Chicks, but that's it more or less. NIKKI LANE's rocking style with a decent rough edge fits quite well to this "strong women" references. Several songs are catchy and always welcome on my soft music playlists, check for example "First High", "Born Tough" or "Black Widow". H.L.

Pohorylle
by Margo Cilker

supported by 10 fans who also own “I Miss The City”

A very clever songwriter and an album that bears many, many repeat listens. Worth the price for the Little Feat reference (in Tehachapi) alone, but it's her way with an image that sticks longest. "You left the building in a flurry / Had your boots on in the house." Caoimhín
