Do You Miss New York? (Album Version) 歌詞
Do You Miss New York? - Susannah McCorkle
Written by:Dave Frishberg
Since I took a left and moved out to the coast
From time to time I find myself engrossed
With other erstwhile denizens of the apple
While we sit around and take LA to task
There's a question someone's bound to ask
And with this complex matter we must grapple
Do you miss New York
The anger
The action
Does your laid back lifestyle
Lack a certain satisfaction
Do you ever burn to pack up and return
To the thick of it
Or are you really sick of it
As you always say
Do you miss the pace
Of rat race a racket
If you had to face it now
Do you still think you could hack it
When you're back in town for a quick look around
How is it
Does it seem like home
Or just another nice place to visit
Were those halcyon days
Just a youthful phase you outgrew
Tell me
Do you miss New York
Do you miss New York
Do you miss the strain
The traffic
The tension
Do you view your new terrain
With a touch of condescension
On this quiet street
Is it really as sweet as it seems out here
Do you dream your dreams out here
Or is that passe
Do you miss the scene
The frenzy
The faces
Did you trade the whole parade
For a pair of parking places
If you had the choice
Would you still choose to do it all again
Do you find yourself standing in line
To see Annie Hall again
Do you ever run into that someone
Who used to be you
Do you miss New York
Me too
Me too
Me too
Me too
