My love has gone His boots no longer by my door He left at dawn and as I slept, I felt him go
New York, New York, Temperature's droppin' The band's out shoppin', not stoppin' 'til ears pop Cops protect shops, lots of yellow cabs and bellhops And it never stops I'm waitin' to do an interview, so much to tell you Today I feel close enough to smell you Additional dates they were plannin' just fell through Florida's out, we fly September 22 to Heathrow So there's not really long to go Tonight will be a brilliant show Lettin' you know I miss you More than four hits the floor at a party Send my love to everybody Please, send my love to everybody (Everybody, everybody, everybody) Send my love to everybody (Everybody, everybody, everybody) Honey, I'm writin' from D.C, feelin' queasy Stayin' healthy on the road isn't easy The TM recommend Sanatogen Not one of them could resist takin' the I miss you like a lock in the door what's more I go to sleep with my Walkman 'cos half the crew snore Don't mean to be a bore, everybody's been great But there's fifteen of us in a bus state-to-state So I stay up late with a tape or meditate My bed is travellin' at fifty-five mph When we make it to L.A., I'll still be miles away It's not my best day I'm gonna get some rest God bless
My love has gone My love has gone (has has has ...)
We just stopped a diner so I'm takin' time To write a few lines. I'm fine, sun shinin' Bus driver's reclinin' on the grass as the trucks pass Gleamin' with a flash of sunlight from the glass On the windscreen - As for us there's too much to relate We've done five gigs but we're only in our third state America's big! You'd love how they pile up your plate Only place in the world even I could gain weight Our next date is Wilmington, Delaware, Open air There's a rumor Melle Mel'll be there Anyway, all the best, God bless I'm yawning I really miss watching you get dressed in the morning
My love has gone My love has gone My love has gone No earthly ships will ever Bring him home
