Story Behind The Song
I was listning to a lot of John Lennon solo music while I wrote this song. I was looking for an unconvesional love song and the picture of John in his New York t-shirt came into my head. The chorus deffintly was inspired by his use of free rhythm in his lyrics.

Lyrics
Another empty box of noise.
Another relief from fantasy.
Another believing fool, believing in you and me.
Again its just like the first.
The first time you fell in love
The minute you look too close the sky falls down from above
Why is every-time I think about you so lovely
You find me every time I go and close my eyes
Why is every-time I think about you
I fall to pieces on the floor
The sun has never been my friend
The moon is my only guiding light
I know it's getting near the end but we still have tonight.
Why is every-time I think about you so lovely
You find me every time I go and close my eyes
Why is everytime I think about you
I fall to pieces on the floor
When will I see you my New York
All these roads that never end, they lead me back to you.
And I can't help but cry the more I am away, I don't know why.
Making up for all my time.
It isn't that it's lost it's gone.
You're beter when the sun don't shine
and when your nights are long.
Why is every-time I think about you so lovely
You find me every time I go and close my eyes
Why is everytime I think about you
I stand there waiting at your door.
When will I see you my New York
