Leaving New York

It's quiet now, and what it brings is everything

Comes callin' back a brilliant night, I'm still awake

I looked ahead, I'm sure I saw you there

You don't need me to tell you now

That nothing can compare

You might have laughed if I told you

You might have hidden a frown

You might have succeeded in changin' me

I might have been turned around

It's easier to leave than to be left behind

Leaving was never my proud

Leaving New York, never easy

I saw the light fading out

Now life is sweet, and what it brings

I tried to take

But loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in wait

And all I've lost still in my eyes

Shadow of necklace across your thigh

I might've lived my life in a dream, but I swear this is real

Memory fuses and shatters like glass, mercurial future, forget the past

But it's you, it's what I feel

You might have laughed if I told you (It's pullin' me apart)

You might have hidden a frown (Change)

You might have succeeded in changin' me (It's pullin' me apart)

I might have been turned around (Change)

It's easier to leave than to be left behind (It's pullin' me apart)

Leaving was never my proud (Change)

Leaving New York, never easy (It's pullin' me apart)

I saw the light fading out

You find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart

You find it in your heart, change

I told you, forever (You find it in your heart)

I love you forever (It's pullin' me apart)

I told you I love you (You find it in your heart)

I love you forever (Change)

I told you, forever (You find it in your heart)

I love you forever (It's pullin' me apart)

I told you I love you (You find it in your heart)

I love you forever (Change)

You might have laughed if I told you (Tell me it's forever)

(It's pullin' me apart)

You might have hidden your frown (Change)

You might have succeeded in changin' me (It's pullin' me apart)

I might have been turned around (Change)

It's easier to leave than to be left behind (It's pullin' me apart)

Leaving was never my proud (Change)

Leaving New York never easy (It's pullin' me apart)

I saw the light fading out (Change)

Leaving New York never easy (It's pullin' me apart)

I saw the light fading out (Change)

Leaving New York never easy (It's pullin' me apart)

I saw the light fading out (Change)
