Leaving New York

it's quiet now and what it brings is everything

comes calling back a brilliant night

im still awake i looked ahead

i'm sure i saw you there

you dont need me to tell you now

that nothing can compare

Chorus

you might've laughed if i told you

you might have hidden your frown

you might've succeeded in changing me

i might've been turned around

it's easier to leave than to be left behind

leaving was never my proud

leaving new york never easy

i saw the light fading out

now life is sweet and what it brings

i tried to take

the loneliness it wears me out

it lies in wake

and all i've lost you're in my eyes

shatter a necklace across your thighs

i might've lived my life in a dream

but i swear it's real

and you refuse, and it shatters like glass

mercurial future forget the past

but it's you it's what i feel

Chorus

you might've laughed if i told you

you might have hidden your frown

you might've succeeded in changing me

i might've been turned around

it's easier to leave than to be left behind

leaving was never my proud

leaving new york never easy

i saw the light fading out

find it in your heart it's pulling me apart

find it in your heart it's pulling me apart

i told you forever i love you forever

i told you forever i love you forever

i told you forever i love you forever

i told you forever i love you forever

Chorus

you might've laughed if i told you

you might have hidden your frown

you might've succeeded in changing me

i might've been turned around

it's easier to leave than to be left behind

leaving was never my proud

leaving new york never easy

i saw the light fading out

leaving new yorl never easy

i saw the light fading out
