New York, Yesterday

Francis my love
It snowed here
In New York yesterday
I walked in Chinatown
Hoping to catch a glimpse
Of your black hair

You're in LA
Or Italy
Not thinking of me
This I know
I tried to forget you
I even found myself another man

But it's you who changed
Everything that I thought about love
And it's you who I compare every man to

Remember the time
That we got drunk
And you told me you wanted
To give us a chance
But then you followed it with
Saying you were in love
With a photographer living in California

My jealousy burned like a drop of boiling watеr
(It feels like) A wild river rapid
Just churning inside with nowhеre to go

Well, maybe our love
Can only exist a night at a time
And maybe it’s too great
Too big and too bright

So we'll take small steps until it's right
Or until it dies
Yeah, we'll take small steps until it's right
Or until it dies

Francis my love
It snowed here
In New York yesterday
