This year the gravel will hold
When I lay down tracks
Aspirations will become actions
When it's never overcast
If you want I will take you
But we have to go now
This year the time will pa** slow
'cause I'm wanting you in New York
More than you'll ever know
If you want to I will take you
But we have to go now
If there's a will, I will pay
For your ticket
Late to bed and early to rise
I will see everything under the city lights
The miscalculations and great expectations
I forgot to leave at home
So I'll keep a quarter in my pocket
For when the search can't keep me warm
And I will break and I'll call you and wish
I'd never left home
I'm a s**er, I thought I had it all worked out
