Lyrics
You looked good that night,
You were standing there, wearing that dress cause you knew it would drive me wild.
I had nowhere to go,
So I was waking to the thought of a new translation,
In the middle of our life.
I never meant to cause you no harm,
But all your friends said that you would never talk to me, if I don?t come around.
We were hanging out alone,
And we were swaying to the music of an old soul station,
In the middle of the night and it was saying everything I felt.
Headed downtown on the old cross-city line,
(and if you?re sinking it in)
You can meet in the spots where all the boys go out at night
(and then you?re sinking in it)
And we?ll be hanging downtown under New York City lights.
And some will run from love,
But they just fall into the pocket of some inattentive stranger,
And they never say goodbye, they keep saying everything.
Headed downtown on the old cross-city line,
(and if you?re sinking it in)
You can meet in the spots where all the boys go out at night
(and then you?re sinking in it)
And we?ll be hanging downtown under New York City lights.
And I know there are others,
Who?re gonna tell you when to come, they?re gonna tell you when to go,
And there?s always another,
Who?s gonna steal way your heart, but never guard it real close.
Well you know I?m around girl
And I?ll miss you when you?re gone, but I?ll catch you when you come home.
Headed downtown on the old cross-city line,
(and if you?re sinking it in)
You can meet in the spots where all the boys go out at night
(and then you?re sinking in it)
And we?ll be waiting downtown under New York City lights if you?re sinking in it,
Well, I know I shouldn?t-a called you girl, but I just wanted to say goodbye.
