Oh! I meant - Ah!
|
|
No, I didn't mean that at all
|
|
Here in the streets of American nights
|
Rise to the bottom of the meaning of life
|
Studied all the rules, and I want no part
|
But I let you in just to break this heart
|
Even though it was only one night
|
It was fuckin' strange
|
|
Nina's in the bedroom
|
She says, "Time to go now"
|
But leavin' it ain't easy
|
|
I've got to let go
|
Oh, I've got to let go
|
|
And the hours they went to slow
|
I said every night
|
She just can't stop sayin':
|
"New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
They ain't too smart
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
They ain't too smart"
|
|
Just kill me now 'cause I'll let you down
|
I swear one day we're gonna leave this town
|
"Stop"
|
|
Yes, I'm leaving 'cause this just won't work
|
They act like Romans, but they dress like Turks
|
Soft time in your prime
|
See me, I like the summertime
|
But...hey
|
|
Nina's in the bedroom
|
She says, "Time to go now"
|
But leaving it ain't easy
|
|
Oh, I've got to let go
|
I've got to let go
|
|
Oh, trapped in an apartment
|
She would not let them get her
|
She wrote it in a letter,:
|
"I've got to come clean
|
The authorities, they've seen
|
Darling, I'm somewhere in between"
|
|
I said every night
|
She just can't stop sayin':
|
"New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
They ain't too smart
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
New York City cops
|
They ain't too smart"
