This view used to bring a smile to my face Lately, its done nothing but remind me of the way
The way that you used to give me butterflies
Took me twenty-one days to walk our former paradise Paradise, bu-bu-bu-day duh-duh doo
* Step by step, brick by brick I'm reclaiming what's mine
This city is way too small to give away to just one guy
Street by street, breath by breath from the Back Bay to the sky
I'm taking back my city, I'm taking back my life
The café where you asked me for my name
The bookstore we spent five hours, hiding from the rain
It's like a game of Monopoly except I steal back all my property
And leave you on the ground
And I know that I'll see you one day on the street with a girl on your arm
But I won't let that keep me from this town
From this town From this town, ooh
