Lyrics
Outside, another yellow moon has punched a hole in the nighttime, yes I climb through the window and down the street I'm shining like a new dime Downtown trains are full, full of all them Brooklyn girls They try so hard to break out of their little worlds You wave your hand and they scatter like crows They have nothing that will ever capture your heart They're just thorns without the rose Be careful of them in the dark Oh, if I was the one... You chose to be your only one Can't your hear me now? Can't you hear me now? And will I see you tonight on a downtown train? Every night, every night is just the same on a downtown train I know your window and I know it's late I know your stairs and your doorway I walk down your street and by your gate I stand by the light at the four way And watch them as they fall, they all having them heart attacks They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back
