We're walking up these stairs

And you and I know I'm coming down alone

Just cause I know where you're going

Well it doesn't mean I'm happy that you're there

 

I know right now, you got a New York State of Mind

But when you come back to me

Everything’s gonna be fine

Yeah you’re gonna be mine

 

I’ve never liked long goodbyes

Go, get on that plane boy, spread your wings and fly

Once you’re through that gate don’t look back

The sooner you’re gone sooner I can start to face the fact that

 

I know right now, you got a New York State of Mind

But when you come back to me

Everything’s gonna be fine

Yeah you’re gonna be mine
