you're scaring me

sometimes you kick me in the teeth

sometimes you don't

lost cause on the lower east side

sometimes you kick me in the teeth

sometimes you don't

lost cause on the lower east side

i hope it doesn't show

same words but they never sound the same

could we slow down and try it all again

it feels like everything is bigger

than the last time that you let me visit

you are beautiful but you're scaring me new york

subway trains lost between the lines

leave me in the dark

how will i ever get to williamsburg

if i don't know where to start?

long nights when the city keeps me longing

for one last drink cause' this heat is overwhelming

it feels like everything you've promised

isn't here now

everything i've wanted

you are beautiful but you're scaring me new york

don't let me walk away from you without your word

that you will never change

sometimes you kick me in the teeth

sometimes you don't

you are beautiful but you're scaring me new york
