|
Well, I came to the city |
|
I was running from the past |
|
My heart was bleeding |
|
And it hurt my bones to laugh |
|
Stayed in the city |
|
No exception to the rule |
|
He was born to love me |
|
I was raised to be his fool |
|
Walk that line, torn apart |
|
Spend your whole life trying |
|
Ride that train, free your heart |
|
It's midnight up in Harlem |
|
I went down to the river |
|
And I took a look around |
|
There were old man's shoes |
|
There were needles on the ground |
|
No more mysteries, baby |
|
No more secrets, no more clues |
|
The stars are out there |
|
You can almost see the moon |
|
The streets are windy |
|
And the subway's closing down |
|
Gonna carry this dream |
|
To the other side of town |
