Matt’s Song (New York City) Lyrics by The Glorious Veins

The Glorious Veins

2011

[Verse 1]
Keep me awake in the fading light, she knows
The reasons why
Keep me awake in the palm of your hand
All I have to do is try
When we fall, oh
When we fall, oh, oh
We cause seasons to change
I can't go back, no, I can't go there
Still, I love you all the same
[Chorus]
Oh, the whispering, beginning of time
You can't take it, this place is mine
She eclipses me, on these city streets
Of New York City, where lovers meet
[Verse 2]
I take everything because I am in love
With a place known to the sun
Waiting to hear, oh, waiting for the hour
Now my day has been done
If I destroy myself, If I destroy myself
Please God, bring me back
Keep me sane, and drown my soul
Somewhere they can't crash
[Chorus]
Oh, the whispering, beginning of time
You can't take it, this place is mine
She eclipses me, on this city streets
Of New York City, where lovers meet
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Oh, the whispering, beginning of time
You can't take it, this place is mine
She eclipses me, on these city streets
Of New York City, where lovers meet
