"New York Minute"

Don Henley

 

 

Harry got up

Dressed all in black

Went down to the station

And he never came back

They found his clothing scattered somewhere down the track

Guess he won't be down on Wall Street in the morning

He had a home

The love of a girl

But men get lost sometimes

As years unfurl

One day he crossed some line and he was too much in this world

But I guess it doesn't matter anymore

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Things can get pretty strange

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Lying here in the darkness

Hear the sirens wail

Somebody going to emergency

Somebody going to jail

You find somebody to love in this world you better hang on tooth and nail

The wolf is always at the door

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Things can get a little strange

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

In these days

Darkness falls early

And people rush home

To the ones they love

You better take a fool's advice

And take care of your own

'Cause one day there here, the next day they're gone

Pulled my coat around my shoulders

Took a walk down through the park

Leaves were falling around me

Groaning city in the gathering dark

On some solitary rock, a desperate lover left his mark

"Baby I've changed

Please come back!"

What the head makes cloudy

The heart makes very clear

I know the days were so much brighter

In the time when she was here

I know there's somebody somewhere

To make these dark clouds disappear

Until that day, I have to believe

I believe I believe

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

You can get out of your range

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Things can get a little strange

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute
