[Verse 1]
Maybe by this time next year I won't remember who you are
Maybe by this time you'll be far enough where I won't feel you
Thought it was over, damn you, falling all over myself
You're keeping me honest, aren't you?
I hate it
[Chorus]
Oh, New York, take him away from me
I can't move on when he's breathing the air I'm breathing
It's too intertwined
His story is mine and I'm so sick of talking about it
Oh, New York, take him away
[Verse 2]
I would recognize your voice all the way across the room
Should've stayed at home tonight
I knew that I was gonna see you
Thought I was better, damn you, I'll never be back here again
You're keeping your eyes down, coward
I hate it
[Chorus]
Oh, New York, take him away from me
I can't move on when he's breathing the air I'm breathing
It's too intertwined
His story is mine and I'm so sick of talking about it
Oh, New York, take him away, take him away from me
Away from me
[Chorus]
Oh, New York, take him away from me
I can't move on when he's breathing the air I'm breathing
It's too intertwined
His story is mine and I'm so sick of talking about it
Oh, New York, take him away, take him away
Take him away, take him away from me
Ooh, ooh
