Tim Moore - Second Avenue lyrics

Since we can no longer make it, girl I've found a new place to live my life It's really no place at all Just a hole in the wall, you see It's cold and dusty but I let it be Livin' here without you On Second Avenue And since our stars took different paths I guess I won't be shavin' in your looking gla** Guess my old friendly grin Must have started to dim, somehow And I certainly don't need it now Still, I keep smiling through On Second Avenue I can still see you standing There on the third-floor landing The day you visited we hardly said a word Outside it was rainin' You said you couldn't be stayin' And you went back to your flowers and your birds Since we can no longer see the light The way we did when we kissed that night Then all the things that we felt Must eventually melt and fade Like the frost on my window pane Where I wrote: "I am you" On Second Avenue I can still see you standing There on the third-floor landing The day you visited we hardly said a word Outside it was rainin' You said you couldn't be stayin' And you went back to your flowers and your birds Since we can no longer see the light The way we did when we kissed that night Then all the things that we felt Must eventually melt and fade Like the frost on my window pane Where I wrote: "I am you" On Second Avenue
