Lyrics
Lights in the towers, dark across the water
So close in reflection yet they couldn't be much further
Rooftops and gardens in high-rise apartments
I'm counting my nickels on the dirty Starbucks counter
Is it me on the other side of Madison & Rich?
Waving in a sundress from my penthouse on 5th
Bustling all around us, city for the dreamers
These streets are a shark tank, I struggle for the surface
Movie star vendors, Broadway bartenders
CEO nannies and billionaire interns
Is it me on the other side of Jackie O Lake?
Waiting for years on end, just to be me, today
Just wait, wait wait wait
Just wait, wait wait wait
Just wait, wait a little longer
'Til we can stop chasing sunsets
Just wait, wait a little longer, and they'll come to us
One day
Run girl run, the day is fading
This city waits for no-one but you have to keep playing
Orange yellow purple like the billboards they're painting
Next it could be your name, whispered on the pavements
Whispered on the pavements
If you just wait
Lights in the towers, dark across the water
I'm counting my blessings, I could be much further
