Waverly / Gay Lyrics by Nora Rothman

Nothing New

2019

Take off for New York
'Cause I lost the good Lord
Don't you, don't you, don't you hate it?
Ashes in the snow
Don't you, don't you, don't you love it?
All the Broadway shows (Ashes in the snow, ashes in the snow)
Ashes in the snow
Why don't I fall in love today?
Or why don't I smoke it all away?
On the seventh floor at Waverly and Gay
Mother dear, I'm here to stay
Back in Minnesota, all you have is space
You cried when I told you I couldn't find my place
Don't you, don't you, don't you hate it?
Sobbing in the streets
Don't you, don't you, don't you love it?
A million folx to meet
Ashes in the snow
Why don't I fall in love today?
Or why don't I eat my fears away?
If I try to go, I'll probably miss the train
Mother dear, I'm here to stay
If I try to go (I'm here), if I try to go (To stay)
If I try to go (I'm here), if I try to go (To stay)
If I try to go (I'm here), if I try to go (To stay)
If I try to go (I'm here), if I try to go (To stay)
I'm here
Don't you, don't you, don't you hate it? (Dirty heartless place)
Don't you, don't you, don't you love it? (Wonderful escape)
Ashes in the snow
Why don't I fall in love today?
Or why don't I smoke it all away?
On the seventh floor at Waverly and Gay
Mother dear, I'll be okay
Why don't I find a job today?
Or why don't I throw my phone away?
If I try to go, I'll probably miss the train
Mother dear, I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
Mother dear, I'm here to stay
