Love Letter To New York
Jeff Berman
I woke up on an empty train, I had dreamt it was all gone
The scenery changed, the cast rearranged and I couldn't hold on
The static on the east side still ringing in my ears
Holden Caulfield streetwise until I disappeared
Emotional conduit one generation to the next
Just a glimmer, just a shadow, just a moment I'm chasing after
Just a mirror on a subway wall and then I'm gone
Vestige of identity just an echo to the wind
Signal something literal before I'm figuratively dead
Forever the outsider lost in the big parade
Just a glimmer, just a shadow, just a moment I'm chasing after
Just a mirror on a subway wall
Just a glimmer, just a shadow, just a moment I'm chasing after
Just a mirror on a subway wall and then I'm gone
