(Verse)
|
A strip of sunlight, a moment in time
|
A change of direction
|
Your life in a face, your words on a page
|
Now your heart needs no protection
|
|
(Verse)
|
In one conversation I saw what I’d always believed in
|
In just a few words I could tell it would hurt
|
To leave you without knowing when I might see you again
|
So again I depend on the unknown
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
|
Where is the danger?
|
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
|
Has time taken leave of our senses
|
Or has sense taken leave of our time
|
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
|
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
|
|
(Verse)
|
I’ve always lived life in search of surprise
|
I keep my eyes open
|
What you can’t control you can’t leave alone
|
So don’t choose be chosen
|
|
(Verse)
|
Now your tongue can’t say the questions cos you know the answers
|
In just a few words I could tell it would hurt
|
To leave you without knowing when I might see you again
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
|
Where is the danger?
|
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
|
Has time taken leave of our senses
|
Or has sense taken leave of our time
|
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
|
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
|
|
(Bridge)
|
On any other day I’d have taken Broadway
|
In a New York minute
|
To think I could have missed you
|
|
(Chorus x2)
|
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
|
Where is the danger?
|
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
|
Has time taken leave of our senses
|
Or has sense taken leave of our time
|
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
|
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
|
