Wasting time's what I like to do But I don't waste time when I'm with you Used to being alone and bored, but when I'm down it starts to pour Uh oh, I can't do this anymore 'Cause I just want to help out, not something to throw out Show you I can go out, come out of my self-doubt And I'm not tryna fool ya, I would like to show you I've changed And I've changed I was stuck in a room, with nothing to lose But now I'm not sure I was lost in space I was lost in space but now I found my place I was lost in space but now I'm in place I know you Give me a chance I don't have many words to say I don't have many words to say Because I know you'll go away in no time, in no time now I know that you'll go in no time, no time at all So I'm savoring each moment and I breathe in I breathe in I know you'll go in no time No time at all

I could write a thousand songs about January I don't wanna be dead I think the permanence scares me And they say that I'm young "This is just the beginning" Tell me why in the hell Do I still feel so empty Dead trees around me And the snow falls down I'll wait for something To bring me out Of this mess that I got myself into I swear I'm okay It's just dark in the winter I could write a thousand songs about January I don't wanna be dead I think the permanence scares me And they say that I'm young "This is just the beginning" Tell me why in the hell Do I still feel so empty It's dark at 3 now I'll blame it on the weather I don't know what to say But I swear I'm getting better Oh I swear I'm getting better Been a while since I've seen the daylight Walking home through the same dark every night Feels like it's lasting forever But I swear I'm getting better

I'm digging through the glove box I thought I had a map in here The driver's door doesn't lock I bought the car my junior year There's candy in my backpack And you can pick our soundtrack We're heading for the East Coast tonight So pack your bags and hold on tight 'Cause we're taking off We're taking off Run away with me We're on the way to New York City Take my hand and see Manhattan never looked so pretty Travel light and see the world right You'll never know if you never go so Run away with me And say hello to New York City Feet up on the dashboard We're driving with the windows down Did you forget your phone cord? We'll buy one in the next small town Get dinner at an IHOP A shower at a truck stop We'll listen to some Johnny Cash Take my hand and don't look back 'Cause we're moving on We're moving on Run away with me We're on the way to New York City Take my hand and see Manhattan never looked so pretty Travel light and see the world right You'll never know if you never go so Run away with me And say hello to New York City Run away Run away Run away Run away Run away with me We're on the way to New York City Take my hand and see Manhattan never looked so pretty Travel light and see the world right You'll never know if you never go so Run away with me Stroll the midtown streets And tell me that you don't feel giddy Lady Liberty Ain't throwing us a wink or is she? Travel light and see the world right You'll never know if you never go so Run away with me And say hello to New York City Say hello to New York City Say hello to New York City

Street fights all the time I take a chance into the night I've got to hear the thunder Night life dies hard Keeps me on my guard It's like a spell I'm under Cause I'm runnin' city to city And all points in between I'm movin' city to city You can find me on the streets Feel my heat Dead heat makes me blind You might think I'm a rebel kind There ain't no way I'm gun shy Dizzy blonde out of reach All my stuff on the asphalt beach I know you think I'm crazy Cause I'm runnin' city to city And all points in between I'm movin' city to city I'm runnin' between the sheets Oh! City (City) City (City) City (City) Oh sit Cause I'm runnin' city to city And all points in between I'm movin' city to city I'm runnin' between the sheets I'm runnin' city to city And all points in between I'm movin' city to city I'm runnin' between the sheets On the streets (On the street) Feel the heat (Feel the heat) City Hey!
