Leaving For New York
Sitting there on the purple lawn
You've been there since dawn
Wondering why I'm gone
And for just too long
You're sorry you gave into me
Giving up your virginity
You're so afraid that you will be
So alone, away from me
Though I said I'd never leave you
This is something that I must do
But I never will forget you
Unless you forget to come in to my high dream
Leaving for New York in the morning
I'm leaving behind a love extraordinare
I'm taking with me memories of when we made love
And all the other loving feelings that we shared
You've overcome that misery
Puzzled by lies, complexity
Picturing your love around me
Only adds to your agony
You're undisturbed by the rain
Your pain must be too strong
And even though you're waiting there
You'll wait for me no matter how long
Though I said I'd never leave you
This is something that I must do
But I never will forget you
Unless you forget to come in to my high dream
Leaving for New York in the morning
I'm leaving behind a love extraordinare
I'm taking with me memories of when we made love
And all the other loving feelings that we shared
Leaving for New York in the morning
I'm leaving behind a love extraordinare
I'm taking with me memories of when we made love
And all the other loving feelings that we shared
