Morningside Heights Songtext

von Steve Wynn

Why won't you come down and shed some light
They've been spreading all those rumors since you walked out that night
Your ghost don't stand a chance when it's filled with flesh and blood
Battered and dragged through the mud

Why won't you come down and show me a sign
You've been gone for so long, you weren't easy to find
Got a breakdown from a facedown that nobody saw
I hope that you find it somewhere

Every Friday I go down by the end of the block
Look the world over and I find that it's easy to walk
It's a long way down but I'll find my way
Yes I'll find my way

Why won't you come down and show me a sign
You were gone for so long you weren't easy to find
From the West Side to the East Side there's no place to hide
Such a beautiful slide
