Verse 1:
I left you in the dark,
and your tears came down like sparks upon my heart.
But I guess its like you said,
I never believed in only once.
It s hard to make amends
when I m buried deep in sin.
Chorus:
Everyone s asleep
I will walk along the empty streets with no one else around
all the New York lights just remind me of the better times
You re on my mind tonight
Verse 2:
(same chords as verse one)
There s no use in asking why
There s no answer in the skyline tonight
and I m half truth half lie
I dont deserve to be by your side.
Confessing all my scars to traffic lights and stars
Everyone s asleep
I will walk along the empty streets with no one else around
all the New York lights just remind me of the better times
You re on my mind tonight
Bridge:
When I see her around this slow burnin town,
I feel like I m on the run from all that I ve done
Ooooh Ooooooh Ooooooooooooh x2
Cause everyone s asleep
I will walk along the empty streets with no one else around
all the New York lights just remind me of the better times
You re on my mind tonight
You re on my mind
You re on my mind
You re on my mind tonight
