Nobody Else Will Be There lyrics

[Verse 1]

You said we're not so tied together

What did you mean?

Meet me in the stairwell in a second

For a glass of gin

[Chorus]

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there

[Verse 2]

Can you remind me the building you live in

I'm on my way

It's getting cold again but New York's gorgeous

It's a subway day

[Chorus]

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there

[Verse 3]

Why are we still out here?

Holding our coats

We look like children

Goodbyes always take us half an hour

Can't we just go home?

[Verse 4]

Hey baby, where were you back there

When I needed your help?

I thought that if I stuck my neck out

I'd get you out of your shell

My faith is sick and my skin is thin as ever

I need you alone

Goodbyes always take us half an hour

Can't we just go home?

[Chorus]

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there

Nobody else will be there then

Nobody else will be there
