about
Written on the subway, while scoping out apartments for my daughter.
lyrics
I’ve got to leave New York before I fall in love
I’ve got to leave New York, this place got a magic touch
All the busy people on the underground train
Takes you anywhere and back again
I’ve got to live in the woods, and I ain’t never gonna give that up
But the big apple been good to me, I just can’t get enough
Four o’clock in the morning and the place never rests
Cab line on the corner and I’m not even dressed
Kids in graduation gowns,
getting on the uptown
down in midtown
doctors, lawyers, engineers
you can’t tell me the future
ain’t whats happenin’ here
in Manhattan
I’ve got to leave New York, I just don’t know how to tell her
In love from the bottom floor to the top of the Rockefeller
full length blond apparition on the corner (blue-eyed blond)
heart so big and warm, but it’s only a loaner
I’ve got to leave New York, before I fall in love again
I’ve got to leave New York, say goodbye to an old, old friend
