rooftop

I'm on a rooftop somewhere in New York City
Party just like the ones you used to bring me to
When it was me and you
I'm keeping busy, moving on and breaking down
You've got everything, why should you get this town?
You know I still look for you in all the crowds

And I wish I could leave this all behind
But where the buildings scrape the sky
They write your name every time

I'm on a rooftop somewhere in NYC
Looking down on the streets where you used to dance with me
When the world was on fire and our love was sweet
Then it all burned down
Now I wanna scream
For the things you said and the things I felt
For when you were the thing I couldn't live without
For how you found that with someone else
And I'm on a rooftop, screaming by myself

I'm on a rooftop somewhere in New York City
Wishing I felt how I did when you were with me, oh no
Maybe I should go
As of lately, I'm trying to figure out what to do
With all the empirical things that I know 'bout you
Well maybe I'll shout 'em from the rooftops too

And I wish I could leave this all behind
But at every corner and every streetlight
You're standing there every time

I'm on a rooftop somewhere in NYC
Looking down on the streets where you used to dance with me
When the world was on fire and our love was sweet
Then it all burned down
Now I wanna scream
For the things you said and the things I felt
For when you were the thing I couldn't live without
For how you found that with someone else
And I'm on a rooftop, screaming by myself

I'm on a rooftop somewhere in NYC
Looking down on the streets where you used to dance with me
When the world was on fire and our love was sweet
Then it all burned down
Now I wanna scream

For the things you said and the things I felt
For when you were the thing I couldn't live without
For how I sometimes still feel like that now
But that's just something I can't tell you
When it's 3 am and everyone's gone home
And your number's dialed up on my phone
'Cause I really don't like to be alone
And I miss the one I used to know

I miss the way you loved me before the time ran out
I miss thinking clearly before the wine ran out
'Cause now I get mad but it doesn't help
I'm just on a rooftop, screaming by myself
