And know I know "Spanish Harlem" are
not just pretty words to say
I thought I knew but now I know rose trees
never grow in New York city
Until you see this trash can dream come true
you stand at the edge while people run you through
And I thank the Lord, there's people out there like you
I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
While Mona Lisas and mad hatters,
sons of bankers, sons of lawyers,
Turn around and say "Good morning" to the night
for unless they see the sky but they can't and that is why
they know not if it's dark outside or light.
While Mona Lisas and mad hatters,
sons of bankers, sons of lawyers,
Turn around and say "Good morning" to the night (To the night)

they know not if it's dark outside or light.
(They know not if it's dark outside or light)
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
zero hour 9 am
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
