3rd Avenue Lyrics

There's a hole in my heart

Where you used to be

Everyone knows the story

Everyone but you and me

And I know there've been times

When I've been wrong

To leave you in the morning

To leave you on your own

And your shoulders were

Bigger than they first appeared

And your face got older

So you covered it up with a beard

Where's the boy I used to know

Whom I met one night in the Manhattan snow

Now there's a hole in my hand

Which you used to hold

Everyone knows the story

But the story's getting old

And I know there've been times

When I've been right

To leave you in the morning

But to stay for the night

And your shoulders were

Bigger than they first appeared

And your face got older

So you covered it up with a beard

Where's the boy I used to know

Whom I met one night in the Manhattan snow

And now jeans are blue and eyes are red

From all the wicked things you said

I've been sitting here alone

For days, for weeks, for years

Friends fall out when words fall in

And I can't tell where to begin

Drinks get downed and cards get swapped

But I'm falling on deaf ears

Where's the boy I used to know

Whom I met one night in the Manhattan snow

Where's the boy I used to know

Whom I met one night in the Manhattan snow
