[Intro]
[Verse]
All of the neighbours went and closed their eagle eyes
Stacked one by one and floor by floor
The halls are empty, nothing left but our goodbyes
Behind a heavy door
[Verse]
And I know that you re tired
And it s been a long week
I know that the sun is steady on the rise
Is this the last time
I ll hold you in my arms?
I would like nothing more than to see your open eyes
[Chorus]
What do people under the gun say?
This trouble, it was born on a Monday
Maybe we ll look back on this one day and we will laugh again
[Verse]
Once several years ago, we spoke for the first time
Lonely in a crowded room
Looking for trouble or an exit or a sign
Knowing you d find it soon
[Verse]
And you said you were happy
You said you were moving
You said that you knew it was time to leave New York
But this is a city
That showed you the next way
And I said,
