Girl In New York Lyrics - Simon Townshend

The girl I feel in love with in New York 

I left her back in England but we talk 

But something died on our walk 

Our walk through life and I wondered why 

It had to die 

The girl I left behind was in my head 

Constantly reminded of all we had 

Moments we shared, good or bad 

We never cared we just let it ride 

One minute passed the hour 

Too late to ever recover 

So hold me inside 

Keep a place in you heart 

Cause you know how I tried but it all fell apart 

As I recall the girl I feel in love with 

In New York 

The reason I was there was be cause of her sometime 

Alone to work out whom we were 

And though it hurt we were happier in our New World 

So like warriors we would fight turning back the pages 

Of our past 

Reality has always been too hard and so unsure 

Our time apart could never have cured the damaged pride 

We went 

One minute passed the hour 

Too late to ever recover 

So hold me inside 

Keep a place in you heart 

Cause you know how I tried but it all fell apart 

As I recall the girl I feel in love with 

In New York 

The girl I feel in love with in New York 

I left her back in England but we still talk
