2541 Lyrics by Robert Forster

I Had A New York Girlfriend

1994

Jimmy gave us the number
And Jimmy gave us a place to stay
And Billy got a hold of a van
And man, we moved the very next day

To twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in the sun
Twenty-five forty-one

Billy put down the money
And I picked up the keys
We had to keep the stove on all night long
So the mice wouldn't freeze

Put our names on the mailbox
And I put everything else in the past
It was the first place we'd ever had to ourselves
I didn't know it would be the last

Twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in the sun
Twenty-five forty-one

Now everything is over
Everything is done
Everything's in boxes
At twenty-five forty-one

Well, things are so much different now
I'd say the situation's reversed
And it will not be the last time
I'll have to be out by the first

Twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in the sun
Twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in the sun
Twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in the sun
Twenty-five forty-one
Big windows to let in, to let in the sun

To let in the sun
To let in the sun
To let in the sun
2541
2541
2541
2541
