You say love is what you put into it You say that I'm losing my will Don't you know that you're all that I think about? You make up a half of the whole You say that it's hard to commit to it You say that it's hard standing still Don't you know that I spend all my nights Counting backwards the days 'til I'm home? If only New York wasn't so far away I promise the city won't get in our way When you're scared and alone, Just know that I'm already home I say that we're right in the heart of it A love only we understand I will bend every light in this city And make sure they're shining on you If only New York wasn't so far away I promise the city won't get in our way When you're scared and alone, Just know that I'm already home When life takes its own course Sometimes we just don't get to choose I'd rather be there next to you Promise you'll wait for me, wait for me Wait 'til I'm home All I have is this feeling inside of me The only thing I've ever known If only New York wasn't so far away I promise the city won't get in our way When you're scared and alone, Just know that I'm already home If only New York wasn't so far away I will be there every step of the way And when you're scared and alone, Just know that I'm already home Just know that I'm already home
