You left New York for West Texas To avoid all of your exes How ironic when that is your thing You left New York for New Jersey And took your pills and got up early You felt amazing, I just felt okay I left New York for Rhode Island The beachfront town where my grandma resided I went shopping at her favorite stores I bought some stuff I needed and then I bought some more You left New York for North Hampton You found a pretty girl and took her out dancing The stars above me are the same ones above you I've been trying to play it cool but I still love you
