15th Floor

(album: Back To You - 2022)

Charlie knows
Just what I like
Special number one
And a couple of sides
I'm checking out this weekend
I'm just not feeling it, no
I've got the balcony
My piece of the sky
Thought I heard the door
But there's no one outside
I need to get my head checked
'Cause with you gone
There's almost nothing left

Guess I've hit that time of life
When I need some quiet nights
On my own
Man this city's too much for me

Too many cars to count them
Too many days that look the same
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor
Too many miles behind me
Too many times when nothing's changed
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor

I've gotta stop
Buying this shit
Ordered twenty shirts
And none of them fit
I need to take a rain check
But then someone calls
And you're back inside my head
Guess I've hit that time of life
Watching TV late at night
On my own
Man it's getting so hard to sleep

Too many cars to count them
Too many days that look the same
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor
Too many miles behind me
Too many times when nothing's changed
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor

I need some time
Some empty space
Somewhere with an ocean view
The simple life
The slower pace
Way up on the 15th floor

Too many cars to count them
Too many days that look the same
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor
Too many miles behind me
Too many times when nothing's changed
Too many nights without you
It's a long way up to the 15th floor

I need some time
Some empty space
Somewhere with an ocean view
The simple life
The slower pace
Way up on the 15th floor
