New York Minute

Lower Madison Avenue is where I first laid eyes on you
And I still remember your jacket
Red Riding Hood in Manhattan
You took a job in L.A., you were only here for two more days
And somehow 48 hours later we're fighting back tears at JFK

But I won't stop you so I walk you to your gate
Check your bags in, did I see you hesitate?
Have a safe flight, oh I hope it gets delayed

But when the wheels left the runway
I couldn't help but laugh
I'll come and visit someday
'Cause you came and went too fast

That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back
That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back

It's not like we can't keep in touch
But different time zones make it tough
I'll send you messages about stupid shit that only you and I would get
Yeah
And maybe yet I'll come surprise you, but maybe that's too much?
I wonder what you're thinking and is it about us?

We only had a weekend
But I can't help but feel like I know you
Need you
Miss you

But when the wheels left the runway
I couldn't help but laugh
I'll come and visit someday 'cause you came and went too fast

That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back
That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back

But when the wheels left the runway
I couldn't help but laugh
I'll come and visit someday 'cause you came and went too fast

That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back
That's the thing about a New York minute
There's just no getting it back
