My love has gone
|
His boots no longer by my door
|
He left at dawn and as I slept, I felt him go
|
[Loop of Erik Satie, as in Pet Shop Boys' Jack The Lad]
|
|
New York, New York, temperature's droppin'
|
The band's out shoppin', not stoppin' 'til ears pop
|
Cops protect shops, lots of yellow cabs and bellhops
|
And it never stops
|
|
I'm waitin' to do an interview, so much to tell you
|
Today I feel close enough to smell you
|
Additional dates they were plannin' just fell through
|
Florida's out, we fly September 22 to Heathrow
|
So there's not really long to go
|
Tonight will be a brilliant show
|
Lettin' you know I miss you
|
More than four hits the floor at a party
|
Send my love to everybody
|
Please, send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...)
|
Send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...
|
|
Honey, I'm writin' from D.C., feelin' queasy
|
Stayin' healthy on the road isn't easy
|
The TM recommend Sanatogen
|
Not one of them could resist takin' the piss
|
I miss you like a lock in the door what's more
|
I go to sleep with my Walkman 'cos half the crew snore
|
Don't mean to be a bore, everybody's been great
|
But there's fifteen of us in a bus state-to-state
|
So I stay up late with a tape or meditate
|
My bed is travellin' at fifty-five mph
|
When we make it to L.A., I'll still be miles away
|
It's not my best day I'm gonna get some rest
|
God bless
|
|
My love has gone
|
(wo wo)
|
My love has gone (has has has ...)
|
(wo wo)
|
|
We just stopped a diner so I'm takin' time
|
To write a few lines. I'm fine, sun shinin'
|
Bus driver's reclinin' on the grass as the trucks pass
|
Gleamin' with a flash of sunlight from the glass
|
On the windscreen. As for us there's too much to relate
|
We've done five gigs but we're only in our third state
|
America's big! You'd love how they pile up your plate
|
Only place in the world even I could gain weight
|
Our next date is Wilmington, Delaware, Open air
|
There's a rumor Melle Mel'll be there
|
Anyway, all the best, God bless I'm yawning
|
I really miss watching you get dressed in the morning
|
|
My love has gone
|
(wo wo)
|
My love has gone
|
(wo wo)
|
My love has gone
|
No earthly ships will ever
|
Bring him home
|
