Lyrics
In lovely New York
There's a spring in my step again
The strings in my bed are gone
The kids kiss and the hydrant is on
In lovely New York
There's a call in the air again
I'll meet you on 4th again
I'm stepping out on Spring Street alone
And I'm still high
It's the constant kicks that keep me stoned
It's not that I don't love her
I just can't go home
In lovely New York
There's a scream and it pushes me
Through subways and pharmacies
I got that and I want 10 more
In lovely New York
The steam from the ground is real
The scene from a Ferris wheel
I'm going up to 44th floor
And I'm still high
It's the constant kicks that keep me gone
It's not that I don't love her
I just can't go home
I just can't go home
In lovely New York
I'm all whore and hound again
I kiss the ground again
It kissed me first and God it hurt
In lovely New York
The lamp post is on again
And hugging it is my best friend
I'm on a limb again
Familiar from England
The sidewalk is closing in
It's constantly hammering
Constantly hammering
What's that we're believing in
'Cause I'm still high
It's the constant kicks that keep me stoned
It's not that I don't love her
I just can't go home
I just can't go home
I want to go home
I just can't go home
