Danny Kortchmar - New York Minute lyrics

Harry got up, dressed all in black Went down to the station, and he never came back They found his clothing scattered somewhere down the track And he won't be down on Wall Street in the morning now He had a home, love of a girl But men get lost sometimes as years unfurl One day, he crossed some line, and he was too much in this world But I guess it doesn't matter anymore In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, things can get pretty strange In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute Lying here in the darkness, I hear the sirens wail Somebody going to emergency, somebody's going to jail You find somebody to love in this world, you better hang on tooth and nail The wolf is always at the door In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, things can get a little strange In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute And in these days, darkness falls early And people rush home to the ones they love You'd better take a fool's advice than take care of your own One day they're here, next day they're gone Pulled my coat around my shoulders, took a walk down through the park Leaves were falling around me, groaning city in the gathering dark On some solitary rock, a desperate lover left his mark "Baby, I've changed, please come back" What the head makes cloudy, the heart makes very clear I know the days were so much brighter in the time when she was here I know that somebody somewhere can make these dark clouds disappear But until that day, I have to believe, I believe, I believe In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, you can get out of the rain In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York, New York minute In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, you can get out of the rain In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, everything can change In a New York minute, you can get out of the rain In a New York minute, everything can change
