New York feels like a distant dream now
Are you even on the scene now?
How will I ever repay you for everything?
Everything
Some nights
I stay up late just wondering
If we were still making love if
We would be happy or anything
Anything
And I look myself in the mirror
I see life ain't a circle, it's a river
And there's you
Cracking weird jokes at the bar
(I know you wanna talk about it)
And then there's you
Holding my hand in the car
(But I just wanna laugh about it)
And then there's you
Ever fearing who I was
Or who I might become
Yeah, New York feels like a distant dream now
Baby it's all just free now
You can rattle the cage and run again
Don't pretend that it's always one and not neither
2021 is gonna be your year
Lost in bars, 13 degrees
High all night on 14th street
And then there's you
Running solo in the park
(I know you wanna talk about it)
Yeah then there's you, sweating toxins in the dark
(But I can't stand the thought of it)
Yeah there's you, in an image on a wall
And an echo in my heart
Yeah there's you
I look myself in the mirror
I still see you but I'm clearer
I see years without you fading into view
And then there's you
