New York City Songtext
you looked better pre charlotte gainsbourgh hair
with those eyes all stuck up in black stuff
you looked better when you didn't remind me
when you didn't remind me that I could've been better
i hear you've married now
i see you're getting on
i'll keep on writing
because i really don't know when to stop
i'll sleep better now
those dreams were frightful
I miss the better ones
but guess i learned to live with the sun
sweetheart enough, see i've been dormant forever
now i'm waking up, a broken bitter spectre
run run run run run run (who's better than)
i know you know that i love you all i love you all but i have to go
(i guess I learnt to live with the) sun sun sun sun (who's better than)
i know you know that i love you all i love you all but i have to go
i'm waking up / a plastic spiteful emperor
up up up / forever tearing my hair out

HER CHEST WAS AN ATHLETE
MAKE HER RUN FASTER
DANCE HARDER
BEAT A BIT LOUDER

chase her through the streets at night
i could never keep up (she keeps on / baby is) galloping

(can you cope without her?)
so. i. had some time to kill so asked her
with a hand and a heart in plaster
can we go jumping from high windows
how i fell for her
she. said. "i can spare a little time but after
you and i we collide, disaster
can you keep thinking of what might have been?
can you cope with that, huh?"
(can you cope without her?)
