Went down to Carolina in the fall Late November leaves barely hanging on Those early sunset shadows standing tall I spent all day crossing county lines Thought if traffic’s good, I’d be there by 9:00 When I finally made it to your door Guess I expected a little more Cause all you talked about were those city lights Like no other place you’ve been When I saw your eyes shining so bright It left me wondering At the end of the day, could you say that you need me Like you need those east coast shores Would you love me a little more If my name were New York Blue Ridge Mountains back in your rearview You're chasing somewhere else, I’m still chasing you You don’t have money for us But you’ve got money for your new tattoo So just keep going to her instead of coming to me I won't be jealous of a city that never sleeps. I’m done wishing that you were here Sleeping next to me Cause all you talk about are those city lights Like no other place you’ve been When I saw your eyes shining so bright I should’ve known it then At the end of the day, you can’t say that you need me Like you need those east coast shores. Would you love me a little more If my name were New York If my name were New York Skylines in your eyes You got no time for me Skylines (You just talk and talk) In your eyes (Am I not what you wanted) You got no time (You're just talk) For me Cause all you talk about are those city lights Like no other place you’ve been When I saw your eyes shining so bright I should’ve known it then At the end of the day, you can’t say that you need me Like you need those east coast shores Would you love me a little more Would you try a little more If my name were New York Would you love me, tell me would you love me Would you love me If my name were New York Would you love me, tell me would you love me Would you love me If my name were New York Would you love me, tell me would you love me more Would you love me If my name were New York Would you love me, tell me would you love me more Would you love me If my name were New York
