[Intro]
Saw it on the television
Heard it on the radio
This in truth, is not yet the end

[Verse 1]
Bus station, it's 4 a.m
Took a taxi to the city, Matt Ball left
Looking too familiar and I don't know how to feel
Not a penny in my pocket
I'm a stranger, wanna get home
Spare some change, sir?
(Wanna get back home!)

Wanna get back home, 40 miles
Across the Hudson, those train tracks
Get back, can you smile?
Here's another joke
Have you got another smoke?
I'm broke, sounds good, but I don't know
(Let's go!)

[Chorus]
I don't know but it sure sounds good to me
I don't care because I still don't know
The way it is, the way it was, the way it's supposed to be
I don't know but it sure sounds good to me
I heard this city never sleeps
[Verse 2]
I heard this city never sleeps, but its eyes are half-closed
Not a passerby, baby cry, I suppose
That I'm selfish, stuck
And I don't give a fuck
Twenty one, morning comes
I've heard and had enough
(I'm so sick of this!)

[Bridge]
I have no friends It hurts so much to be alone
I wish this night would fucking end
I close my eyes and dream of home

[Chorus]
I don't know but it sure sounds good to me
I don't care because I still don't know
The way it is, the way it was, the way it's supposed to be
I don't know but it sure sounds good to me
I heard this city never sleeps

[Outro]
I wish this night would fucking end
I close my eyes and I dream of home
