Intro: (x2) verse 1 You said we're not so tied together What did you mean? Meet me in the stairwell in a second For a glass of gin Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there verse 2 Can you remind me the building you live in I'm on my way It's getting cold again but New York's gorgeous It's a subway day Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there verse 3 Why are we still out here? Holding our coats We look like children Goodbyes always take us half an hour Can't we just go home? verse 4 Hey baby, where were you back there When I needed your help? I thought that if I stuck my neck out I'd get you out of your shell My faith is sick and my skin is thin as ever I need you alone Goodbyes always take us half an hour Can't we just go home? Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there Nobody else will be there then Nobody else will be there
