on a crowded train in new york
i watched the world come and go
you just weren’t the one
how could i have known…
they say in america
work hard, it comes true
and all that could stop me
was my love for you
and you said i wouldn’t try
as more and more slipped away
how could you say i wouldn’t try
tell me how could you say…
why can’t you love me?
like you love this town…
you’ll only leave me
like a train underground
why can’t you be happy?
damn you, be happy!
shhh… it’s the train… i’m leaving you now…
alone i walk the streets of this place
stones and ghosts all around
without you with me
i am alone in this town
and you said i was a fool
and i would end up alone
and i’ll be the fool
better than you who have turned to stone
why can’t you love you?
like i love this town…
why did you leave me
on a train underground
sometimes i am happy!
despite all, happy!
shhh… another train… coming around
i gave up moments to be in your arms
time never wasted. i sit here. i watch cars.
and you said i wouldn’t try
as more and more slipped away
how could you say i wouldn’t try
tell me, how could you say!
why can’t you love me
like you love this town
the whole world is leaving
on a train underground
why can’t we be happy?
that’s all… just happy…
shhh… it’s the train. where to now?
why can’t you be happy….
