Won’t Stay Gone Forever

Won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone forever
Won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone

I barely knew your name at the time
But New York seemed to fit you just right

And on the day you died
I thought I heard you come back home
To the bench in Central Park where they
Carefully scrawled your name

No, I won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone

The fireworks are soundin' off tonight
In the city that cannot sleep

A man outside is singing to me
"If you made it here, you'll make it anywhere" (yeah)

Street's on fire
And I just wanna come back home
To the town you loved so desperately
It's gone now with your memories, oh (hm)

We fucked up, our lives flew over our heads
So, I guess we'll lay low instead

I missed New York out on the road
Now I'm here and I miss it from home

I spend my time like Bill on replay
I wake up each day and Brooklyn's still changed

(I won't stay gone forever) 'cause all my friends
(I won't stay gone forever) live in video games
(I won't stay gone forever) I FaceTime them to
(I won't stay gone forever) remember their names (their names)

I won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone forever
Won't stay gone forever
I won't stay gone forever

(I won't stay gone forever) just meet me back in
(I won't stay gone forever) New York someday
(I won't stay gone forever) just meet me back in (back in)
(I won't stay gone forever) New York (New York, forever) someday
