Lyrics:

For the 7th track on this album, PJ Harvey brings in frontman of Radiohead, Thom Yorke to sing the verses, creating one of the highlights of this album.
Can you hear them? The helicopters?
I'm in New York, no need for words now
We sit in silence, you look me in the eye directly
You met me, I think it's Wednesday
The evening, the mess we're in and

Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)

Night and day
I dream of making love to you now, baby
Lovemaking on-screen
Impossible dream and I have seen
The sunrise over the river
The freeway reminding of this mess we're in and

Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)


Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)

What were you wanting?
What was it you wanted?
I just wanna say
I just wanna say
Don’t ever change
Don’t ever change now, baby
And thank you
And thank you
I don’t think we will meet again
I don’t think we will meet again
And you must leave now
And you must leave now
Before the sun rises over the skyscrapers
Before the sunrise above skyscrapers
And the city landscape comes into being
Sweat on my skin
The city
Oh, this mess we’re in

Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
Oh-oh (The city sunset over me)
