lyrics

New York’s an awful place
to go and let your heart break.
In a night that goes on for days,
there’s a life slipping away.

For me, I’m drinking more,
waiting for someone to come along
and pick me up.

In my heart, I know you’re gone
and I am left to sing along
to the voice that’s in my head:

My life is a one night stand.
My life is a one night stand.

I danced with this pretty thing.
For a moment, I felt young.
So I called my closest friend.
She told me about her son.

She said, my boy, he gets along,
he makes me proud.
So what are you doing now?

In my heart, I know you’re gone
and I am left to sing along
to the voice that’s in my head.

I tell myself it’s just a lark.
Some day you’ll be somewhere else.
Until then, you do what we can.

My life is a one night stand.
My life is a one night stand.
