Lyrics
I chase the sun around the park all day long till it's dark
It's July, but what can I say?
I can't get warm when you're away
Yellow taxis on Second Avenue
The Coney Cyclone on sunny afternoons
Can't sit still, not for a moment
It's why I love you; it's ironic
I don't need you to come home
Right This Minute
I'm ok here on my own
Right This Minute
But in case there's any doubt, I wish you would
So much music, not enough oxygen;
let's get together and try to breathe again
And not get nervous at a little silence
You and me, not a coincidence
I don't need you to come home
Right This Minute
I'm ok here on my own
Right This Minute
But in case there's any doubt, I wish you would
I wanna be selfish sometimes
Wanna take hold of what's mine
Wanna say "do what I say"
But I can't keep you that way
I don't need you to come home
I'm ok here on my own
I don't need you to come home
Right This Minute
I'm ok here on my own
Right This Minute
But in case there's any doubt, I wish you would
Right This Minute
Right This Minute
I wish you would
