I took a trip to Harlem to see where my lonely angel's |
|
gone, all winter long |
|
Now where'd she get those wings from and my god from |
|
where'd she get those limelight colored eyes. |
|
I know, you know this is just a dream, but come friday |
|
night that angel's gonna wake me, and then the only thing |
|
I'll want in this whole world, is for her to be my New York |
|
City Summergirl |
|
This must be what true love's like, she's flowing up |
|
and down and round my simple mind, from far beyond |
|
the ocean the siren's cry: "Run, my chicken run, down |
|
rainbow one" |
|
She's blowing kisses in my dreams, they settle down upon |
|
my shivering sailor heart, they tell me just where I need to |
|
be, and now I'm pretty sure the city's the place to start. |
|
I know you were never meant to be walking with me in the |
|
cold on the New atreet, still the only thing I want in this whole |
|
world, is you to be ny New York City Summergirl |
|
New York, you're my New York Summergirl |
|
These days, won't come round no more I'm sure, so baby |
|
let's fall in love |
|
I've taken that long way round, to meet you in your prime, |
|
darling, just let your hair down low, baby, and dance like |
|
you'll dance no more |
|
New York, you're my New York Summergirl |
|
You know, it's your heart I'm gunning for |
|
"The taste of fruit from distant gardens makes it hard, |
|
I can't deny, to fall in love on monday morning, with the |
|
plain red dirt, dressed up all in white" |
