Down on the Lower East SideWell the midnight's on Manhattan 11th street and all aloneCountin' cracks beneath my feet cause my head is hanging low And the street lights all down be shining on the falling rain Shadows dance across the street Wind seems to whisper her name But in this tired old town another sleepless night Keep me wandering around down on the lower east side So lay a star up in heaven shining down from up above And the city is unforgiving when you got nobody to love But it's more and more these days I find I need a place to hide And it's easy to get away when you're down on the lower east side Yeah it's easy to get away when you're down on the lower east side |
