[Verse 1] New York isn’t New York without you love So far in a few blocks to be solo [Refrain 1] And if I called you from First Avenue Well you’re the only motherfucker in the city who can handle me [Verse 2] New love wasn’t true love back to you love So much for a home run with some blue bloods [Refrain 2] If I last-strawed you on 8th Avenue Well you’re the only motherfucker in the city who can stand me [Chorus] I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you darling I’d do it all again I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you darling I’d do it all again [Verse 3] New York isn’t New York without you love Too few of our old crew left on Astor [Refrain 3] And if I trade our hood for some Hollywood Well you’re the only motherfucker in the city who would Only motherfucker in the city who would Only motherfucker in the city who’ll forgive me [Verse 1] Please could you be tender? And I will sit close to you Let’s give it a minute before we admit that we’re through Guess this is the winter Our bodies are young and blue I was at Jungle City it’s late and this song is for you [Pre-Chorus] ’Cause I remember the rush when forever was us Before all of the winds of regret and mistrust Now we sit in your car and our love is a ghost Well I guess I should go yeah I guess I should go [Chorus] Hard feelings These are what they call hard feelings of love When sweet words and fevers All leave us right here in the cold oh oh Alone with the hard feelings of love God I wish I believed you When you told me this was my home oh oh [Outro] And you’re the only motherfucker in the city who can handle me

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la douleur et les souvenirs d'un amour perdu à New York. L'artiste se sent incomplet sans la présence de cette personne spéciale, et chaque coin de la ville rappelle des moments partagés. Elle exprime des sentiments de regret, de nostalgie et d'un besoin de réconciliation, tout en reconnaissant que la relation était bien plus qu'un simple flirt. Elle aborde la complexité des émotions qui entourent la rupture et la difficulté d'accepter la fin d'une connexion profonde. Le contexte de la chanson semble être celui d'une réflexion sur une relation passée, enracinée dans le paysage vibrant de New York, qui devient un symbole de souvenirs. Cela illustre comment une ville peut être intrinsèquement liée aux personnes avec qui nous partageons notre vie, rendant la séparation d'autant plus douloureuse.
