My mind burnt out like stardust
On December One
You stood there in the hallway
Like moonlight on the run
You said if the lights go out on New York
The lights go out on us
And in seconds, it was over
Like stardust into rust

Baby, I don't have your number
I don't even know your name
But I'll be calling you from New York
And hoping you feel the same
And if the lights go out on New York
The lights go out on us
In seconds it will be over
Like stardust into rust

I'm losing sleep to lucid dreams
Where I'm walking in a field
You are there, your wicked soul
Wandering to me

You haven't called and it's been hours
You haven't written or sent flowers
Oh God, did you think that
It might just be too hard?
Oh God, did you think that
Or did you know it from the start?

Baby, I don't have your number
I don't even know your name
But I'll be calling you from New York
And hoping you feel the same
And if the lights go out on New York
The lights go out on us (The lights on New York)
In seconds it will be over (The lights on New York)
Like stardust into rust (The lights on New York)

The lights go out on us
The lights on New York
The lights go out on us
