Central Park West

Walk the park

Mosey through central

Before the dark

Ask me to walk slow and hold your arm

Hand in hand we go

To the turtle pond

Look how they’re swimming

Espresso warm

Decaf was weak, but something strong

Was blowin’ your leaves home

And oh, it’s hard to let you go

When all I will ever know

is how strong you stood when the wind would blow

Didn’t say bye

You asked me not to

I think I know why

Want me to remember you in the baseball park

Bud Light and hotdogs

And I know that I knew you better than I even realized

Every time we’d talk we’d both get the tears in our eyes

I’m cheering for you from the front row at the Yankees

I wish you were here but I know you’re cheering for me

And oh it’s hard to let you go

When all I will ever know

Is how strong you stood when the wind would blow

Oh, it’s hard to let you go

When all I will ever know

Is I’ll think of you every time the wind blows

I’ll beg the sky, I beg you more

Carry me through central

I’ll cry, at your door

Wishin’ you were still there

I beg the sky, I beg you more

Carry me through central
