|  | 
| Now life is sweet and what it brings I tried to take... | 
|  | 
| The loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in wait | 
|  | 
| And all not lost still in my eye, the shadow of necklace across your thigh | 
|  | 
| I might have lived my life in a dream, but i swear it, this is real | 
|  | 
| Memory fuses and shatters like glass, mercurial future, forget the past | 
|  | 
| But it's you, it's what i feel. | 
|  | 
| You might have laughed if I told you (it's pulling me apart) | 
|  | 
| You might have hidden a frown (change) | 
|  | 
| You might have succeeded in changing me (it's pulling me apart) | 
|  | 
| I might been turned around (change) | 
|  | 
| It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart) | 
|  | 
| Leaving was never my proud (change) | 
|  | 
| Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart) | 
|  | 
| I saw the light fading out |
