St. Vincent - Down and Out Downtown

Last nights heels
On the morning train
It's a long way back downtown

Ten missed calls
They don't know where you are
It's a long way back downtown

Hey, I was flying
Over the Empire State
When you kissed me
And I crashed again

When did it start?
This feeling so overt
When you're down and out downtown

(Ooh)
Bowery John
(Ooh)
Forgotten but not gone
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Praying at St. Ann's
Bodega roses in my hands

Down and out downtown
And the joker with that funny laugh
Is digging through the basement of my past
It's a long way back down
Down and out downtown

Hey, I was flying
Over the Empire State
When you kissed me
And I crashed again
Ooh
