Midnite in Harlem

Well, I came to the city
I was running from my past
My heart was bleeding
And it hurt my bones to laugh

Stayed in the city
No exception to the rule, to the rules
She was born to love me
I was raised to be a fool, to be a fool

(Walk that line) walk that line
(Torn apart) torn apart
(Spend your whole life trying) spend your whole life trying
(Ride that train) ride that train
(Free your heart) free your heart
(It's midnight up in Harlem) it's midnight up in Harlem, hmm

I went down to the river
And I took a look around
There were old man's shoes
There was heartache on the ground

No more mysteries, baby
No more secrets, no more clues, no more clues
The stars are out there
You can almost see the moon

(Hoo-hoo, ooh) streets are windy
(Hoo-ooh, ooh-ooh) and the subway's closing down
(Ooh-ooh, ooh) gonna carry this dream
(Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh) to the other side of town

(Walk that line) walk that line
(Torn apart) torn it apart
(Spend your whole life trying) to spend your whole life
Your whole life trying
(Ride that train) ride that train
(Free your heart) free your heart
(It's midnight up) midnight up in
(It's midnight up) midnight up in
(It's midnight up) it's midnight up in Harlem

(Hey now)
(Hey now) when the sun goes down (hey now)
(Hey now, now) gonna take that train
(Hey now) to the other side of town (hey now)
(Hey now)
(Hey now, now) but when stars are out there
(Hey now) shining so bright (hey now)

(Hey now) up around midnight
(Hey now, now) up around midnight (hey now)
(Hey now) up around midnight (hey now)
(Hey now, now)
(Hey now, hey...)
