Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wait for me
Stay for me
You medicate my bad days
Hit all my highways
[Verse 2]
Speed for me
Bleed for me
Steal me away from all the bad guys
'Cause I'm nice
[PreChorus]
Down here on the Bowery
The city's got me feeling high
Got me where you want me
In your midnight eye
[PreChorus]
Always remember, honey
When you need a ride
You got me, got me, got me going
Got me running wild, 'cause
[Chorus]
Yeah
You taste just like New York
Before a storm takes hold
You race like you are high and armed
And I'm alarmed
But yeah, I bust my lips on yours
How sweet, the night is dark enough
We're only seeing stars
[Verse 3]
You're made for me
Come back, babe
Leave a knife in the heart of me
Every time you go
I can't keep my eyes on the road, oh-oh-oh
[PreChorus]
I'm awake and wanting
I'ma take something
Let it be you, you, you, you
[Chorus]
Yeah
You taste just like New York
Before a storm takes hold
You race like you are high and armed
And I'm alarmed
But yeah, I bust my lips on yours
How sweet, the night is dark enough
We're only seeing stars
You taste just like New York
[Bridge]
Boom, boom, boom
What you do, do, do to me
Ripping from the deepest root of me
It's easy for you to see
You got me where you want me
[Bridge]
Boom, boom, boom
What you do, do, do to me
Ripping from the deepest root of me
It's easy for you to see
You got me where you want me
[Chorus]
Yeah
You taste just like New York
Before a storm takes hold
You race like you are high and armed
And I'm alarmed
But yeah, I bust my lips on yours
How sweet, the night is dark enough
We're only seeing stars
[Outro]
You taste just like New York
You taste just like New York
You taste just like New York
And I'm alarmed
But yeah, I bust my lips on yours
How sweet, the night is dark enough
We're only seeing stars
