Standard (EADGBE)

You say love is what you put into it

You say that I'm losing my will

Don't you know that you're all that I think about,

 You make up a half of the whole?

You say that it's hard to commit to it

You say that it's hard standing still

Don't you know that I spend all my nights,

 Counting backwards the days 'til I'm home?

 If only New York wasn't so far away

 I promise the city won't get in our way

 And when you're scared and alone

 Just know that I'm already home.

I say that we're right in the heart of it

A love only we understand

I will bend every light in this city

 And make sure they're shining on you.

 If only New York wasn't so far away

 I promise the city won't get in our way

 And when you're scared and alone

 Just know that I'm already home.

When life takes its own course

Sometimes we just don't get to choose.

I'd rather be there next to you,

 Promise you'll wait for me, wait for me,

Wait 'til I'm home.

All I have is this feeling inside of me,

 The only thing I've ever known.

 If only New York wasn't so far away

 I promise the city won't get in our way

 And when you're scared and alone

 Just know that I'm already home.

 If only New York wasn't so far away

 And I will be there every step of the way

 And when you're scared and alone

 Just know that I'm already home.

 Just know that I'm already home.
