New York City Lyrics

I've never felt so close to home
being so far away
and I really dont mind you leaving me here
alone to find my way
I walk through the city of lights
where the people never sleep
and I find myself 86 floors up
and I finally feel complete

You never gave that to me so...

Leave me in this city
leave me here to die alone
I'll work for every little thing
that I dare to call my own
and throw me in a taxi
walk away but leave that smile
I'll stand on these two feet
and I'll fight alone for a while

Looking back on everything
that was never really home
I've never seen an honest truth
in what you all have shown
the streets are all the same
there's nothing new to make me try
but the city that seems so fake, is real
and it's keeping me aliveA Romance Thesis - New York City - http://motolyrics.com/a-romance-thesis/new-york-city-lyrics.html

you never gave that to me, no
you never showed me how... so...

Leave me in this city
leave me here to die alone
I'll work for every little thing
that I dare to call my own
and throw me in a taxi
walk away but leave that smile
I'll stand on these two feet
and I'll fight alone for a while

I'll fight for a while..
you'll understand what I have left behind
and you will see...
I'm getting by alright
I'm just fine!

So, Leave me in this city
leave me here to die alone
I'll work for every little thing
that I dare to call my own
and throw me in a taxi
walk away but leave that smile
I'll stand on these two feet
and I'll fight alone for a while
