Much Farther To Go Lyrics - Singles - Rosie Thomas

New York is lovely in the winter time 

All the sidewalks are white as snow 

The buildings, all the people that pass me by 

How the smile on his face says he's in love 

I took the train all the way to Brooklyn Heights 

I remember when you took it there with me 

We sat side by side and held hands for some time 

We saluted the Statue of Liberty 

I have much farther to go 

Everything is new and so unpredictable 

I should just kick my heels together and go home 

But I'm not sure where that is anymore 

Oh, how I wish I could go back in time 

To the night when I heard my mother cry 

She held me in her arms and we talked for some time 

And I sang a song her mother sang to her and it goes 

Something about paper dolls and what men prefer 

Something about the cross and how her Jesus died for her 

Something about love and how the truth fighting for 

I wonder does love like that exist anymore? 

And I, I have much farther to go 

And I, I'm so confused I know 

I should just kick my heels together and go home 

But I lost my way when I lost you 

Sometimes I cry when it's late at night 

And you're not there to lay next to me 

Morning breaks and the sun warms my face 

How I wish it was you warming me
