Besedila: Zach Macko & Far North. The Doorway. Goodnight New York.


Goodnight new york I hope you sleep well
I promise to keep secrets I won't tell anyone
so get some sleep before the sun comes

in a tree lined street town
we made the best of whats around
where it taught us to drink
so not to think
and stay up all night

but we are ready to leave
all that we've known
the one place that we've ever called home
so goodbye back yards
and late night guitars
makin out in the back
of hand me down cars

hooded sweat shirt walks
and late night talks
drinkin in your room
with the lights off
now we are ready to leave
all we've known
so turn the lights on

so goodbye jersey
I'm sorry we can't stay
but I promise to come back to you, someday
you taught us well
but we are making our own way
gonna get our little name on the big lights
bright lights on broadway

so to nyc, I know you don't sleep
with the synponthy of sound
horns play off the beat
buildings scrape the sky that all fall in line
with a chorus played by church bells and chimes

subways they hum
and fill the base line
walkin feet on the street
keep it all in time
you better keep up
or you gonna get
left behind

the traffic lights provide
the lights show
and the only stars you see
live down below
sidewalks are used as long runways
checkin yourself out in store window pains
steam off the street
floats on concrete
as the lights go down
sittin in front row seats
you and me
will you be there

so goodbye jersey
I'm sorry I can't stay
but I promise to come back to you someday
you taught us well
but we are makin our own way
gonna get our little names on the brights lights
big lights on broadway

and summer nights in your apartment
and stories and reminders of where we've been
on the wall read the story of it all
the pictures help to fill the blanks in
so come on, yell it out
good night new york

so goodbye jersey
I'm sorry I can't stay
but I promise to come back to you someday
you taught us well
but we are makin our own way
gonna get our little names on the brights lights
big lights on broadway

so good night new york
I hope you sleep well
I promise to keep
secrets I won't tell anyone
so get some sleep before the sun comes

so go out there and face your fears
don't worry I'll still be here to catch your tears
in the light, and the love
that we set ourselves up for life and love
good night new york
