You're a no good heartbreaker
You're a liar and you're a cheat
And I don't know why
I let you do these things to me
My friends keep telling me
That you ain't no good
But they don't know
That I'd leave you if I could
I guess I'm uptight
And I'm stuck like glue
'Cause I ain't never
Loved a man the way that I love you
Sometime ago I thought
You had run out of fools
But I was so wrong
You got one that you'll never lose
The way you treat me is a shame
How could you hurt me so bad
Baby you know that I'm the best thing
That you ever had
Kiss me once again don't you never say
That we're through
'Cause I ain't never
Loved the man the way I love you
I can't sleep at night
I can't eat a bite
I guess I'll never be free
Since you've got your hooks in me
Ain't never loved a man
Ain't never had a man hurt me so bad
Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or Hollywood.
I'm taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line
I'm in a New York state of mind.
I seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines,
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens,
But I know what I'M needing and I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind.
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and the blues,
But now I need a little give and take,
The New York Times, the Daily News...
It comes down to reality
and it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide,
Don't care if it's Chinatown or Riverside,
I don't have any reasons, I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind.
I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line-
'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind.
Zbyt pochopnie oceniłam nas
zbyt naiwnie chciałam myśleć
chaos życia zmienić w ład
czemu wzrok twój zimny jest jak stal
czemu wolisz odejść niż zrozumieć mnie
raz szansę dać
Miało tak być nam przyjemnie
grać tak beznamiętnie
w korowodzie marzeń tkwić
że ja to ja, a ty to ty
miało tak być nam przyjemnie
żyć tak bezboleśnie
w korowodzie marzeń tkwić
że ja to ja, a ty to ty
Znów twój obraz przed oczami mam
przypomina otchłań
ciężko będzie odbić się od dna
stępić zmysły muszę, żeby trwać
zbyt pochopnie chciałam brać
więcej niż się unieść da
Miało tak być nam przyjemnie
grać tak beznamiętnie
w korowodzie marzeń tkwić
że ja to ja, a ty to ty
miało tak być nam przyjemnie
żyć tak bezboleśnie
w korowodzie marzeń tkwić
że ja to ja, a ty to ty
