Seventh Avenue

The world keeps getting smaller
 'Till it closes 'round my room
 And everything I feel now
 Is hard and fast and true
 My window is a spotlight
 On the madness down below
 It takes a silent figure
 To make this place a home
 And now the candles burn all night without you
 And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
 On Seventh Avenue
 I gave you what you wanted
 And it took so many years
 Now I'm just a part of
 The traffic and the tears
 I am not a lighthouse
 Not the answer or the truth
 But the love that I held onto
 Is safe inside this room
 Now the candles burn all night without you
 And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
 On Seventh Avenue
 Now the candles burn all night without you
 And the moon hangs out of sight, so blue
 On Seventh Avenue
 All of the stories from all of our lives
 Are not lost from memories on these streets tonight
