New York Time
The midnight ferry crashed
Into the fire escape
She got locked out
Crawled through her own window like a robber
When she got mad
She spoke French
I couldn't understand
But I knew what she meant
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On New York time
Hide your eyes aw baby
You can't miss
What you don't see
On New York time
I hid my eyes
'Cause whenever I see her
I never see her again
Dancing in circles
Like boxers with squares in our lips
She wore a 60s coat unzipped
Wore her hair tied up
And I'm her dartboard
And she got good
She sat me down
Tried to see where we stood
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On New York time
Hide your eyes, aw baby
You can't miss
What you don't see
On New York time
I hid my eyes
'Cause whenever I see her
I never see her again
North of September
The sun and north of the street
Ah, east of the wind
And south of the rainfall
Tomorrow she'd head
Back home for the west
Tomorrow we'd leave it
Right where we left
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On
On New York time
New York time
New York time aw babe
You can't miss what you don't see
New York time gon kill me slowly
I'm aging faster and faster and faster
Like a metro headed out to the suburbs
Moving faster and faster and faster
I don't wanna look at you too hard
I'm afraid I might see a future
I don't wanna look at you too hard
I'm afraid I might find the answer
On
On yeah
On
New York time
Into the fire escape
She got locked out
Crawled through her own window like a robber
When she got mad
She spoke French
I couldn't understand
But I knew what she meant
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On New York time
Hide your eyes aw baby
You can't miss
What you don't see
On New York time
I hid my eyes
'Cause whenever I see her
I never see her again
Dancing in circles
Like boxers with squares in our lips
She wore a 60s coat unzipped
Wore her hair tied up
And I'm her dartboard
And she got good
She sat me down
Tried to see where we stood
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On New York time
Hide your eyes, aw baby
You can't miss
What you don't see
On New York time
I hid my eyes
'Cause whenever I see her
I never see her again
North of September
The sun and north of the street
Ah, east of the wind
And south of the rainfall
Tomorrow she'd head
Back home for the west
Tomorrow we'd leave it
Right where we left
If the day won't last
Then the day won't end
On
On New York time
New York time
New York time aw babe
You can't miss what you don't see
New York time gon kill me slowly
I'm aging faster and faster and faster
Like a metro headed out to the suburbs
Moving faster and faster and faster
I don't wanna look at you too hard
I'm afraid I might see a future
I don't wanna look at you too hard
I'm afraid I might find the answer
On
On yeah
On
New York time
