Longing to you from a New York hotel
The lights of Broadway just down the street
I hope you are happy, I hope you do well
I hope your life is on the upbeat
I was longing to you long before you were gone
And I ran away long before it was done
Streets; like a river flows thru my mind
Feels like a river
A pale moon is shining from a colorless sky
A steel wind is ripping my soul apart
From outside my window the voices all cry
Calling on me into the night
But I won't obey. I won't do what I'm told
(Because) the city is ugly. The city is cold
Streets; like a river flows thru my mind
Feels like a river
The city outside is about to wake up
The darkness is taking the color of gray
A naked room, dust, an empty cup
My life is about to become a cliché
But life's all I have now, cause I have lost you
I hope you are happy - whatever you do
Streets; like a river flows thru my mind
Feels like a river
