Leaving New York
It's quiet now and what it brings is everythingComes calling back, a brilliant night, I'm still awakeI looked ahead, I'm sure I saw you thereYou don't need me to tell you now that nothing can compare
You might have laughed if I told youYou might have hidden your frownYou might have succeeded in changing meI might have been turned aroundIt's easier to leave than to be left behindLeaving was never my proudLeaving New York, never easyI saw the light fading out
Now life is sweet, and what it brings I tried to takeBut loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in waitAnd all not lost, still in my eyeShadow of necklace across your thighI might have lived my life in a dream, but I swear it, this is realMemory fuses and shatters like glassMercurial future, forget the pastBut it's you, it's what I feel
You might have laughed if I told you (It's pulling me apart)You might have hidden your frown (Change)You might have succeeded in changing me (It's pulling me apart)I might have been turned around (Change)It's easier to leave than to be left behind (It's pulling me apart)Leaving was never my proud (Change)Leaving New York, never easy (It's pulling me apart)I saw the light fading out
You find it in your heartIt's pulling me apartYou find it in your heartChange
I told you forever (Find it in your heart)I love you forever (It's pulling me apart)I told you I love you (Find it in your heart)I love you forever (Change)I told you forever (Find it in your heart)I love you forever (It's pulling me apart)I told you I love you (Find it in your heart)I love you forever (Change)
(You never, you never told me forever)You might have laughed if I told you (It's pulling me apart)You might have hidden your frown (Change)You might have succeeded in changing me (It's pulling me apart)I might have been turned around (Change)It's easier to leave than to be left behind (It's pulling me apart)Leaving was never my proud (Change)Leaving New York, never easy (It's pulling me apart)I saw the light fading out (Change)Leaving New York, never easy (It's pulling me apart)I saw the light fading out (Change)Leaving New York, never easy (It's pulling me apart)I saw the light fading out (Change)
