|
Maybe I should wander |
|
Through these streets a little longer |
|
Hey New York City |
|
Won't you welcome me back home? |
|
And darling I love you |
|
But I swear that I'll be gone |
|
By the time you figure out what you want |
|
Maybe I should wander |
|
Through my solitude a little longer |
|
Turn your head now sailor |
|
Well I used to be so much stronger |
|
How in the hell did I get here? |
|
In this city so alone |
|
Oh sometimes life seems so long |
|
You can't soothe me with your sweet voice |
|
If I can't be your first choice |
|
You can't soothe me with your deep eyes |
|
If I can't be your first prize |
|
You can't soothe me with affection |
|
If it's pointed in the wrong direction |
|
Unless you think I'm perfection |
|
Unless you think I'm perfection |
|
Maybe I should wander |
|
Through these streets a little longer |
|
Find my ruthless angel |
|
That will carry me back home |
|
Cause we all wanna go home |
|
And we search for love our whole lives |
|
I found a man who only wants to be alone |
|
Maybe down the road who knows? |
|
You'll get it together |
|
With all your charm my hope grows |
|
It's wonderful |
|
But you're flirting only as a friend |
|
You touch my heart |
|
And promise everything |
|
It'll be a mighty cold winter |
|
Five million people |
|
Couldn't one of them be you? |
|
And darling I love you |
|
But I swear that I'll be gone |
|
By the time you figure out |
|
What you want |
|
You can't soothe me |
