Sirens Lyrics by Rika (NYC)

A New York Love Affair

2019

[Verse 1]

How the hell’d this happen?
Frankly, you’re not even my type
Started off so innocent
Quick flirt at work
Get my kicks with no relationship
But, joke’s on me 'cause
Somehow I’ve fallen in love
And I know you have too
But you got a wife, kid and dog to keep you distracted
But I go home alone at night, think about us and fall backwards
How I’ll get over you when I see you every day I don’t know
But I know I gotta face my fears and find a love of my own
You feel the guilt, I feel like I had stronger morals
Feel so pathetic waiting 'round for you to have some free time
I plan those moments like we can fit a whole life in one night
Maybe I’ll see next ya lifetime

[Chorus]

Secrets in the alleyway
Kissing in the rain
Imagining, how we would be
Sneakin’ in windows of time
Know you’re not really mine
Used to be fine pretending
But now the flame’s too hot
And we’re running down the fire escape
"Let go"
Hear the sirens say
And the sirens ring, and the sirens ring

[Verse 2]

Ooh, the way you touch me, it’s gon’ be hard to get over this
And ooh, the way you love me, look in my eyes and I swear I feel helpless
It's twisted, but I find myself so jealous of your wife
How I’ll never be that big a part of your life
Cuz I know you love her, and, and you’re pretty much happy, and
And you ain’t leavin'...
Some days I feel okay about lettin this go
Some days I’m in such pain, my tears overflow
It’s just the sense of permanence
Knowing we’ll never get the chance
To explore us fully, freely
Below 110th Street
No one will ever understand what we had
And once we let go there’s no going back
And that makes me so sad
Think I’ll pour myself another glass
(Damn...)

[Chorus]

Secrets in the alleyway
Kissing in the rain
Imagining, how we would be
But we dont have too much time
Know you’re not really mine
This freedom don’t feel so free
But now the flame’s too hot
And we’re running down the fire escape
"Let go"
Hear the sirens say
And the sirens ring, and the sirens ring

Ooh, they’re ringin', we’re runnin'
They’re ringin' and we’re runnin' and I’m
I’m so sorry - I’m so, so sorry
I probably deserve this
But never again
