[Verse 1: Jake]
I could take you on a rooftop, baby
Where you been lately?
Where you been lately?
Cut my ears off and call me a child
Waiting all the while
Waiting all the while for you

[Chorus]
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs

[Verse 2: Jake]
All the way from Minnesota to New York
Where we got started
Where you dues imparted upon mine
Your letters filled heart-shaped caverns
Black ink and lanterns
With our whisky tantrums

[Pre-Chorus: Jake]
Smoke from cigarettes
And bitter drinks that cloud the
Piney scent of home
[Chorus]
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs

[Bridge: Jake]
Tell me friend
Are you content
With how it has to be?
Halocline
Your hand in mine
A purpose here I see
Oh, faceless crowds and tall buildings keep you thinking, oh
About St. Paul winters, never keen on leaving you, oh

[Chorus]
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul

[Bridge 2]
I could take you on a rooftop, baby (St. Paul roofs)
I could take you on a rooftop, baby (St. Paul roofs)
I could take you on a rooftop, baby (St. Paul roofs)
I could take you on a rooftop, baby
[Chorus]
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
St. Paul roofs
