2nd for the 1st time

I stepped out the taxi cab on 2nd avenue for the 1st time
I never even set eyes before.
But i see my footprints all around here
My guitar, borrowed suitcase, borrowed floor
There's nothing more to say, i know i had to come
And i'm a million miles away and i am all alone
But it feels like i am home

I walked around, went underground and
I see how i could survive here
I see a million hungry eyes that i recognise from mine here
I was right, just my judgement that was wrong
There's nothing more to say the moment has now gone
And i'm a million miles away and i'm 5 hours behind
But it feels like the right time

I hear a distant call and i know that i have to leave here
I pack up all my things,
I say all my goodbyes, close the door here
We were right, just bad timing i suppose
There's nothing more to say, you know i got to go
And i'm a million miles away and i left you there alone
So i'll say goodbye, i'm going home
