Houston Street歌词

作词 : Jieying Tong/Jiaying Tong
作曲 : Jieying Tong/Jiaying Tong
She lived on the north side
Of Houston Street
On the west side of the park
Going to school by day studying
Something that would
Break her father's heart
He grew up on the south of Houston
Making the trek uptown for work
Looking forward to the four seconds
He would catch a glimpse of her
But he never said hello
The sun goes down and life goes on
Strangers on the street
Rushing to and from
Day by day, another song
Playing in the park
Just to make a buck
A normal day in New York City
Where the dreamers try their luck
This is where all stories begin
And all stories end
One day on the crosswalk
Of Houston Street
They spoke the first time
He could tell that she'd been crying
From the red in her blue eyes
He apologized for his clumsiness
As she gathered up her things
One moment later
She was gone as if
It had only been a dream
But he never said hello
The sun goes down and life goes on
Strangers on the street
Rushing to and from
Day by day, another song
Playing in the park
Just to make a buck
A normal day in New York City
Where the dreamers try their luck
This is where all stories begin
And all stories end
Suddenly one day
Without warning
He didn't see her anymore
She wasn't at her spot
By the fountain
Or the sidewalk like before
Slowly weeks turned
Into years until
She became a memory
Now he smiles
When he tells his kids
'bout the girl
From Houston Street
The sun goes down
And life goes on
Strangers on the street
Rushing to and from
Day by day, another song
Playing in the park just
To make a buck
A normal day in New York City
Where the dreamers try their luck
This is where all stories begin
And all stories end
This is where all stories begin
And and this story ends
