Lyrics

All of my dreams and all I wanted,
I packed up my case and I stuck them on it.
Turned the key and tried to slip away.
“You better behave.”

I stepped down from my very first plane. You picked me up out at JFK. All the trains were running fine, you gave me a token for a subway ride. And said hey, where you gonna go your first day?
This train stops at Astor and 8th.
Turn left and go right up the stairs, you’re on Broadway.

Hey hey on the rooftop, let me know your name.
Hey hey at the bus stop, I’ll see you again.
Hey hey, are you gonna throw this away

Like being in Greece on Astoria Boulevard. I'm living in Queens but I'm the king of the hard. Working in the city, I got my fifth start,
every day I lose my heart. And Hey, on my knees in Time Square Church
cause that woman nearly tore off my shirt, as we were speeding down the west side highway, let’s cut across to Broadway.

Hey hey on the rooftops, let me know your name.
Hey hey at the bus stop, I’ll see you again.
Hey hey, are you gonna go with that feelin’ inside. Hey hey can’t let go of it, till you try to hide, till you try to hide, yourself away, away.

till you try to hide,
till you try to hide,
till you try to hide,

Hey hey on the rooftops, let me know your name.
Hey hey at the bus stop, I’ll see you again.
Hey hey, are you gonna go with that feelin’ inside. Hey hey can’t let go of it, till you try to hide, till you try to hide, yourself away.
