Lyrics Lily Kershaw – Myth Of New York

Text:

It’s just a myth of a city
New York New York
Living life by committee
New York New York

I spent a couple of years running around all over town
I was just a child then
I’m much older than that now

Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there’s nothing left there
I’ve been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I’d like to go back there
But is it gone now
Who knows

There was a time when we dreamt wide awake
Dreamt of crossing oceans
Just crossing oceans for the sake
We were all living in timelines short and long
All Life is for forgiving
It’s the only way to get along

Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there’s nothing left there
Oh I’ve been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I’d like to go back there
But are you gone now

Who knows

I met a man who pulled me back to where I am
And now here I stand
Now here I stand
On the myth of a man
On the myth of a land
What we we were loosing we didn’t really understand

Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there’s nothing left there
Oh I’ve been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I’d like to go back there
But is it gone now
Who knows

I’d like to go back there
But is it gone now
Who knows
