Days and nights they blur together
Through balmy winds and stormy weather
The moon hangs high and splits the night
Please shed some mercy on this plight!
It doesn't seem very fair at all
For she's alone and he's hit a wall
With you is where I'd rather be
But I just can't leave, it's a sorrowful plea
These chains they just won't loose their hold
Even though that love's gone cold
For years and years I've searched for you
Now leaving's come and I'm not through
Matters that be they are at hand
Life has a way to twist what's planned
The clouds do break, they dissipate
Our destined love we anticipate
Hear me now my darling dear
Do not despair, please have no fear
Don't pay the ransom yet says he
I've escaped New York, I come for thee!
