23rd Street Lyrics by Bill Morrissey

The Essential Collection

0

[Verse 1]
This moonlight in New York
Will not go away
I sit in this hotel
And tonight I'm just too drunk to pray
She said that she'd always love me
But that she might not always stay
[Chorus]
Have a seat
Have a seat
And we can look at the world through this window
On Twenty-Third Street
[Verse 2]
I came a long way to see her one more time
There was a subway to take me uptown
There was an address she gave me last Christmas
Where she said she could always be found
I listened as she said she loved me
I'll always remembеr that sound
[Chorus]
Have a seat
Have a sеat
And we can look at the world through this window
On Twenty-Third Street
[Verse 3]
If you look closely down to the sidewalk
You can see yourself as a ghost
We would walk 'round the block with no reason to talk
Back then we were younger than most
It's a love that you never will see
Hey, buddy, I don't mean to boast
[Chorus]
Have a seat
Have a seat
And we can look at the world through this window
On Twenty-Third Street
[Verse 4]
Well, there's some folks bring love to a hotel
And some just bring their own quiet end
And my story's not one hard to tell
And I just wanna tell it again
She said that she'd always love me
All I need is to find her again
[Chorus]
Have a seat
Have a seat
And we can look at the world through this window
On Twenty-Third Street
