Bubblegum Lemonade New Year Or New York
[verse 1]
Lately, I'm becoming forgetful
Of late, I still remember you
The days go by so fast
They're always running from the past
Always running from themselves
[verse 2]
Yesterday, I chanced across your picture
The sepia has faded long ago
Was never one for looking back
I'll keep those feelings in the dark
I'll keep those feelings all to myself
[verse 3]
Your letter, it called me to the east coast
Your letter, said more than you meant to
Never caught that flight to JFK
And perhaps it turned out best that way
Perhaps, I've said more than I had meant to
[verse 4]
The hours are counting down to midnight
They're counting on another steady year
Spent the whole night in my favourite seat
I'm like the city somewhere that never sleeps
The city where you live, and you're not here
[verse 5]
I haven't seen you since the war was over
Left a gap just like the Continental Shelf
Plastic knives and plastic forks
New Year or New York
I'll keep those feelings all to myself
Plastic knives and plastic forks
New Year or New York
I'll keep those feelings all to myself
