Streets Of New York

Boy, you take me by surprise again

you take me by the hand and then

lead me down the streets of new york

on a willful afternoon

when i thought love could choose

i heard your song playing on the radio

i'm somewhere i don't want to be

the city's moving over me

but i think i'm going to stay

Please dont be alarmed

i'm at the start of something

i walked up the grand to our hotel

and bought a round of perfect tens

and imagined you were there

and you, you became the man who explained

if this wasn't love how could it have been anything else?

I'm somehwere I don't want to be

The city's moving over me

But I think I'm going to stay

Please don't be alarmed

I'm at the start of something

I want to ask you everything

I want to ask you everything

We stayed

and smoked another cigarette

And if smoke lingers I wont forget

I try to say I'm sorry

An you, you're with more than I could ever be

But I looked up and you had disappeared

And left ya crying to the rain

I'm somewhere I don't want to be

The city's moving over me

Yet I think I'm gong to stay

Please don't be alone

I'm at the start of something

I want to ask you everything
