I stepped out the taxi cab on 2nd avenue for the 1st time I never even set eyes before. But I see my footprints all around here My guitar, borrowed suitcase, borrowed floor There’s nothing more to say, I know I had to come And I’m a million miles away and I am all alone But it feels like I am home
I walked around, went underground and I see how I could survive here I see a million hungry eyes that I recognise from mine here I was right, just my judgement that was wrong There’s nothing more to say the moment has now gone And I’m a million miles away and I’m 5 hours behind But it feels like the right time
I hear a distant call and I know that I have to leave here I pack up all my things, I say all my goodbyes, close the door here We were right, just bad timing I suppose There’s nothing more to say, you know I got to go And I’m a million miles away and I left you there alone So I’ll say goodbye, I’m going home
