Chorus

Bridge

 It's a song I wrote for no one and no one's gonna hear

 Cause I'd sooner die than sing it, there ain't nobody here

Followed her from Brooklyn, from Brooklyn where she ran

 Breaking hearts, stealing cars, and smoking cigarettes

 Well, she's pretty and she's skinny and she hasn't got a clue

 That I'd be staring at her coffee as the cup begins to cool

Chorus

[2nd time through chorus]

Seen her on the subway, first time I ever did

 So I followed her down the street to her apartment

 And I sat there until morning just a staring at the door

 The air is cool but visions of her hair will keep me warm

[Repeated hair will¦ is part of 1st time through chorus]

 Her hair will keep me warm

[2nd time through chorus]

 When she left I snuck across and stuck a note inside her box

 It read "my dear, you are so lovely and I'd really love to talk"

 When she got home then she read and said "my god, what do you mean?"

 I don't know, I just go where my heart leads me.

Playing the bridge with barred chords

 Where my heart leads me

 Ooh, where my heart leads me

 Well, I should'a known something when she called the police

 And I should'a known something when she asked me to leave

 But a man just can't give up on the girl he wants to keep

 Where my heart leads me

 Ooh, where my heart leads me.
