She Sets The City On Fire
Everybody knows she's a perfect tenAnd I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing endsCause New York sky don't get much brighterShe sets, she sets the city on fire
Somebody told me if I'm not carefulWell, this one's gonna roll meI got my hands full and this one's gonna own me and control meI'm so mystifiedShe caught the last train last night, left another noteSaying "see you next time; miss me if you don't"You look good in your bed; til we meet againYou went through my head and nobody told me so
Everybody knows she's a perfect tenAnd I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing endsCause New York sky don't get much brighterShe sets, she sets the city on fireShe sets the city on fireBurns like a million lightersI'm going up, I couldn't get much higherShe sets, she sets the city on fire
New scene, next blockShe'll be jaywalking right across while the cops talkMake you feel like a boss when your eyes lockAnd you can't stop staring endlesslyShe got the whole thing figured out; hits me where it hurtsAnd I know I might be swinging at a curveI don't mind it, though, when the lights are lowShe can hit the notes wearing my T-shirt
Everybody knows she's a perfect tenAnd I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing endsCause New York sky don't get much brighterShe sets, she sets the city on fireShe sets the city on fireBurns like a million lightersI'm going up, I couldn't get much higherShe sets, she sets the city on fire
But I don't know if I'm chasing ghostsPut my hand in the flame of a flickering lighterAgain and again, I was lucky just to find herBut I don't know if I'm chasing ghostsPut my hand in the flame of a flickering lighterAgain and again, I was lucky
Everybody knows she's a perfect tenAnd I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing endsCause New York sky don't get much brighterShe sets, she sets the city on fireShe sets the city on fireBurns like a million lightersI'm going up, I couldn't get much higherShe sets, she sets the city on fire
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higherShe sets, she sets the city on fire
