5000 Miles

The last time I saw her

I went in reverse

But the city is hers now for better or worse

I’m just off my flight hailing cabs on the kerb

Hey driver can you take me to 45 1st?

Drinking iced coffee

D’you think of me?

New York has stolen my lover

How am I gonna cope without her?

Can’t you see how much I love her?

I miss her so, hey don’t you know?

New York has stolen my lover

I think too much about her

Came all this way to love her

5000 miles, 5000 miles

I’m in these feelings inside of this place

These portraits that you’re taking

This bar left a taste

Your eyes make me nervous

And I can’t look away

Let’s find your apartment and maybe I’ll stay

Drinking iced coffee

D’you think of me?

New York has stolen my lover

How am I gonna cope without her?

Can’t you see how much I love her?

I miss her so, hey don’t you know?

New York has stolen my lover

I think too much about her

Came all this way to love her

5000 miles, 5000 miles

I didn’t know

That I wanted you closer to me

Why can’t we rewind to one of the times before I leave?

New York has stolen my lover

How am I gonna cope without her?

Can’t you see how much I love her?

I miss her so, hey don’t you know?

New York has stolen my lover

I think too much about her

Came all this way to love her

5000 miles, 5000 miles

I came all this way

5000 miles
