Why am I sad?
The city lights tonight
Are beautiful without us
At 2:45 I turn to see
On second avenue
A sleeping taxi cab in silence
I'm tempted to forget
Why should I care?
I've got a thousand things
To think about without her
Someone is there
But I don't understand
A word you're saying
Silence, I'm tempted to forget
Laugh again, do you have
To be so serious all the time?
Silence, I'm tempted to forget
