It's raining in New York Raining hard on 7th Avenue It's a storm on West 13th Tornado when I think of you
My heart that was a house It had a thousand windows But this house is getting cold You crushed it when you left here
Left me trying to build a heart But no one is here to fill it up I'm trying to build this heart from nothing
The city is getting soaked Streets turned into rivers But this house of mine is a dry and sandy place Stone-cold, but yet a desert
And I'm trying to build a heart But no one is here to warm it up I'm trying to build this heart from nothing
The least you could have done Was to leave me here with nothing But I'm left with broken walls I'd feel better smashed to pieces
But I'm trying to build a heart But no one is here to fill it up I'm trying to build this heart But no one is here to warm it up I'm trying to build this heart from nothing
From nothing
I'm trying, and failing Failing, and trying Trying, and failing Failing to try, try, try, try
