ya yeh ya, heyey ya, oh woh woh woh woh, ah ah ah ahh



say goodbye to all of your friends

and the people we knew

its better that it comes from you

tell them what you want

cause I tried so hard to make you happy

no big star dreams, no things that seem

to make up your life

so I'm going back to new york city 

where people live



in my reality

all of my life

yours was no good for me

need to feel the beat 

of the street, in my life

in my reality

back to my life

yours was no good for me

3000 miles away

and everydays a new day



all those dreams that pulled us apart

and the things that you want

they'll never be enough for you

so I'll say goodbye

and I'm going back to new york city

where people live



in my reality

back to my life

yours was no good for me

need to feel the beat 

of the street

in my life

back to my old address

nobody to impress

3000 miles away

and everydays a new day ya



I guess my love was not enough for you

so I'll say goodbye baby

and I'm going back to new york city

there people live



in my reality

all of my life

in my life
