Chinatown Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Innocent love
I need someone somewhere
I need somewhere to come down
I need some way to break his heart
Innocent love
I need someone somewhere
I need somewhere to come down
I need some way to break his heart

[Chorus]
We're not happy 'til we're running away
Clouds in your eyes
With nothing but the foggiest day

[Verse 2]
One of a kind
I need to keep you here
I need to picture you still
I need to clear the fog
One of a kind
I need to keep you here
I need to picture you still
I need to clear the fog

[Chorus]
We're not happy 'til we're running away
Clouds in your eyes
With nothing but the foggiest day
Clouds in your eyes
We're not happy 'til we're running away
Clouds in your eyes
With nothing but the foggiest day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
