Leaving New York
R.E.M
it's quiet now
and what it brings
is everything
comes calling back
a brilliant night
I'm still awake
I looked ahead
I'm sure I saw you there
you don't need me
to tell you now
that nothing can compare
you might have laughed if I told you
you might have hidden a frown.
you might have succeeded in changing me
I might have been turned around.
it's easier to leave
than to be left behind
leaving was never my proud.
leaving new york, never easy.
I saw the light fading out
now life is sweet
and what it brings
I try to take
but loneliness
it wears me out
it lies in wait
and all not lost
still in my eye,
the shadow of necklace
across your thigh, I might've lived my life in a
dream but I swear it.
this is real.
memory fuses
and shatters like glass,
[Leaving New York lyrics on http://www.elyricsworld.com]
mercurial future, forget the past
it's you
it's what I feel
you might have laughed if I told you
you might have hidden a frown.
you might have succeeded in changing me
I might have been turned around.
it's easier to leave
than to be left behind
leaving was never my proud.
leaving new york, never easy.
I saw the light fading out
you find it in your heart,
it's pulling me apart,
you find it in your heart, change
I told you, forever
I love you forever.
I told you i love you
I love you forever
you never, you never
you told me forever...
you might have laughed if I told you
you might have hidden a frown.
you might have succeeded in changing me
I might have been turned around.
it's easier to leave
than to be left behind
leaving was never my proud.
leaving new york, never easy.
I saw the light fading out
leaving new york, never easy.
I saw the light fading out
leaving new york, never easy.
I saw the light fading out
