The city keeps on going on
Float down the river with my Matty D and Jay Get off the boat and board a plane to JFK and I Haven't slept in a week But it don't seem to matter to the subway squeakers squeaking at my feet The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling on Grand Central Station got a windy coming down Independence yesterday, ain't no one around Oh I still recognize her after all these years She still looks the same Oh, she still looks the same The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling The city keeps on going Oh, we just keep on rolling Rolling on Rolling on. When we left Brooklyn it was raining so hard Come up on 8th and the rain it cleared off We're just people watching on 3rd and St. Mark's Wendy girl just kissing my face, my face She was just kissing my face The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling Again, again, again The city keeps on going We just keep on rolling The city keeps on going Oh, we just keep on rolling Rolling on Rolling on Just when I was sick and down There was a shaking on the ground We were hiding from the rain We were riding on the train Just when I was sink and down There was a shaking on the ground We were hiding from the rain We were riding on the train She was dancing on the midway Just kissing my face She was dancing on the midway Just kissing my face Dancing on the midway Just kissing my face Dancing on the midway Just waving goodbye |

My eyes were sad
And my fingers were mad As I wrote this letter that said 'I wish you the best in your new royal address And I wish that he were dead' Guess you don't mind that he's got a wife And a mistress already in place You just throw back your hair And you'll say you don't care When you hide that look on your face You used to have such a pretty little smile Yeah, but look at you now Yeah, but look at you now He's a better man now that you're holding his hand Now that he's got yours to keep Oh, and I hope you can feel your someone who needs you When it comes for your turn to eat And so it seems his rich accent must mean that he's a bit brighter than me Oh, and I guess he won't lie through the whites in his eyes Or the gap in the front of his teeth You used to have such a pretty little smile Yeah, but look at you now Yeah, but look at you now Well, if I had to guess I would not be impressed By the cups of tea he can drink No, 'cause the fatter he gets from those caviar chips Is the faster your ship starts to sink Oh, and I guess I can't blame you If I had to shame you With the things I've done since you left town Probably have to tell your new lover Fetch a pail of water For your building crumbling down You used to have such a pretty little smile Yeah, but look at you now Yeah, but look at you now I screamed at your letter For half an hour Screamed til my throat was sore And I lost my voice when he lost your choice Don't ever come knock on my door You used to have such a pretty little smile Yeah, but look at you now Honey, look at you now Oh, look at you now Look at you now Look at you now Oh, look at you now Look at you now Look at you now |

You were standing tall
In the corner of a light While everybody talked I just stared at you Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on I was moving closer You pretended not to notice I was waiting on a sign Then you looked up and smiled Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on O Andrea Oh I think I'm sinking down O Andrea Honey, I want you around And when you turned to me Your hair fell in your eyes And I moved it away And you looked so surprised Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on And on And now You said you loved my charm And then you took my arm And then we slipped away to the burgandy rooms Our old sound music played Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on Singin' on and on and on and on O Andrea Oh I think I'm sinking down O Andrea Honey, I want you around O Andrea Oh I think I'm sinking down O Andrea Honey, I want you around And you were standing tall And on and on and on |

I knew a girl in Meteor City
?We used to drive down on Crater Road ?And I would hold her hand and she would look pretty ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ?? I'd spend my days in this run down cafe ?Working for a room at the top of the stairs ?And she would work the counter, man just to be around her? Was the only thing that kept me there ? Couldn't wait for the cool night air? Couldn't wait for the cool night air?? I knew a girl in Meteor City ? We used to drive down on Crater Road ? And I would hold her hand and she would look pretty ?Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ?Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ?And I said oh, Sofia, where'd you get a name like that ? Living in this dirt old town She says "I think she was a movie star my father knew before I was born But I really don't remember now, he left when I was so young When I was so young"?? I knew a girl in Meteor City ? We used to drive down on Crater Road ?And I would hold her hand and she would look pretty ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ??At night the stars they all jump through the sky ? With the dreams that I miss so much ? And I hate the emptiness and the pain inside ? A little whiskey and a woman's touch ? Yeah, it's as good as love? Yeah, it's as good as love I knew a girl in Meteor City ? We used to drive down on Crater Road ? And I would hold her hand and she would look pretty ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know ? Didn't worry about the things that we just didn't know |

Don't like to think about the way it ends
I like to think you and I can be friends We were heavy on love and heavy on mistakes I'm so sorry it ended up this way, darling Will someone paint the ceilings blue? But what's a blue sky if I can't have you to hold Under these stars of this faketown Keep me falling down Keep me falling down I play these bars and all I get is grief I drank too much, I'm heavy on my feet And I can't remember what my fingers used to do I stand in the rain too drunk to call you So I'm falling down So I'm falling down Yes I'm falling down Yes I'm falling down I saw you falling down I saw you falling down Where are you now Where are you now I heard the radio, it was playing our song Don't know where you were, hope you sang along Used to be warm, you're warming (???) And I'm falling down And I'm falling down Used to have such a pretty smile Where are you now Where are you now I do miss you I do miss you I do miss you Do you miss me Do you miss me Do you miss me And I was falling down And I was falling down And I was falling down And I was falling down I was falling down I was... |
