We weren't ready for the country me and you 

Just a couple of city boys 

We couldn't even sing the blues 

We couldn't even light a fire or find 

The polestar 

Give me suburban moonshine 

You know I was raised on dogfights 

Weaned on the streetlights 

I'm a residential boy 



Didn't ask to get born here 

In the city I just got dumped 

And I just got thumped 

When I tried to run away 

You didn't ask to get born here neither 

But now's the time we can spread our wings 

Make it out where the clear brook sings 

And time can slip away, slip away 

Without Love 



See him out through the window 

In the streets below us 

Keepin' his sadness out of view 

He's so lonely, he's so low 

He's like I was before you 

Without love, oh how low I was 

And I only know now how low I was without love 



Pull down the shade 

You know that I was made to love you 

And only now I know how bad it was 

Without you in my arms 

Without you in my heart 

I was only playing a part 

I was hardly living at all 

Without love, oh how low I was 

And I only know now how low I was without love
