D-WHY - New York Times Lyrics
[Verse 1]I met the girl of my dreams in a coffee shop last weekSomewhere on the Lower East SideShe walked in the door with her dog and a friendWho was lost in the New York TimesI am pacing back and forth feeling nervousAccidentally spilled my coffee on purposeHoping she'd notice, she turned awayPaid the cashier, have a nice dayI'm waiting for the train, I'm watching the peopleSo busy as they all walk byThe doors they slide open, it's hot and it's crowdedLiving in these New York TimesI am not to be bothered by no onePut on my headphones to drown the commotionBut a fight breaks out right in front of meGet off at the next stop before they try to run on me[Hook]I look for love everywhere I goI've been asking why is the world so cold?Been tempted twice, will I sell my soul?I keep asking why is the world so cold?So cold, so cold, is the world so cold?So cold, so cold, is the world so cold?[Verse 2]I'm Hollywood bound with a dollar and lintIn my pocket, but I'm doing fineMeeting at two, but I'll probably be lateCause I'm still stuck on New York timeThen I get stuck in traffic for an hourWise man told me, "patience is power"But he probably wasn't stuck in traffic, was he?It's crazy how the 405 is uglyNow I'm lost in a small town somewhere outside PhoenixDecided to go for a driveThis place looks Brooklyn, I'm loving it hereAnd I'm having a New York TimeExcept I can really see the stars right above meNo pollution, nothing but meSuddenly the city lights flashThen I'm right back, just like that[Hook][Verse 3]Left to die, lived to tellSummer's gone, wish you wellBut I don't know where I'm driving to, driving crazyDriving Miss Daisy 'til I'm pushing up daisesIt may be that the woman I met who told me never forgetWas the same one who left and made me live with this regretNo talking now, I'm walking now, just put me in a coffin nowThrow me in the ground, I hope they miss when I'm not aroundBut I'll be fine, cause in due time, I'll start to climbAnd reach my prime, then walk the line, I free my mind sometimesWhen you least want it, that's when life will throw you the signsCause if love is what you're looking for, it's love you'll never find[Hook]
