Story Behind The Song
I AM in love with the city. Which city? My city . . . and also New York, San Francisco, London, Florence. In my song, I imagine gritting it out in a city ('smear my face') while still being in love with the city. I love being "a regular" in my city. And I'm intrigued by wild rabbits (hares) that have shown grit in carving out an existence for themselves in my northern city of Edmonton. They're all over - diggin' the city and eking out an existence in the alleys and the residential fieldscapes.
Song Description
I love this song. It's a first version of the title track of an upcoming EP. There will be a few versions of "I'm In Love With The City", likely including a remix. I don't want to be too hypey about this, but I think it's going to be ultra cool.

Lyrics
I'm in love with the city - mmm mmm
lost my time in the city - mmm mmm
- mmm mmm mmm mmm
fought for life in the city - mmm mmm
night life shone in the city - mmm mmm
livin' my life, livin' my life
hung around in the city - mmm mmm
hunker down in the city - mmm mmm
crawl space in the city - mmm mmm
smear my face sinister sounds in the city regular in the city
boner city
