Lyrics

[Verse 1]
New York surprise me
Twenty-one and I need somethin'
To pick me up out of
The company I run with
And Emily just phoned for me to smoke with her
And on her furniture
Discuss how love has been
[Verse 2]
I must admit, I think I lost my way a bit
'Cause six days in, I swear I lost my baby
But then I wrote two tunes that, yeah
[Verse 3]
To kindly drag me out from nowhere
And pay for all my cigarettes
And whatever it took to keep you off my mind
[Verse 4]
New York surprise me
Twenty-two and I need somethin'
To keep me inside of
The company I run with
And Emily just phoned for me to smoke with her
And on her furniture
Discuss how love has been
(Yeah, we discussed how love has been)
[Verse 5]
I must admit, I've been known to my way a bit
'Cause six days in, I swear I lost my patience
But then I wrote two tunes that, yeah
[Verse 6]
They kindly dragged me out from nowhere
And paid for all my cigarettes
Whatever it took to keep you off my mind
They kindly dragged me out from nowhere
And paid for all my cigarettes
Whatever it took to keep you off my mind
