[Verse 1]
Walkin' through the city, got your voice in my head
And the scent of your perfume
Thinkin' bout the letters, all the things that you said
And how Sundays come too soon

[Pre-Chorus]
Time moves slowly
Every second's like a night on my own
I get lonely
Maybe I do hunger for you
More than you'd ever know

[Chorus]
If I could make the city wait
Pull all the breaks
Like the world isn't here
If I could make a fast escape
I would leave my car in traffic
Take the subway to your heart, your heart
Subway to you

[Verse 2]
Gazing 'cross the lovеrs holding hands in the park
A reminder of old you and mе
Wanna keep you happy, do whatever it takes
'Cause your love is my priority
[Pre-Chorus]
Time moves slowly
Can't explain it til' you're there on the phone
Boy, you've shown me
All that I'd do, only for you
Every single day

[Chorus]
If I could make the city wait
Pull all the breaks
Like the world isn't here
If I could make a fast escape
I would leave my car in traffic
Take the subway to your heart, your heart
Subway to you

[Bridge]
Late afternoon, on a Sunday
Takin' a cold New York subway
After the love of my lifetime
To you
Baby, you'll see, I'll be coming
Soon as the train is arriving
Bringin' me home where my heart is
To you
[Chorus]
If I could make the city wait
Pull all the breaks
Like the world isn't here
If I could make a fast escape
I would leave my car in traffic
Take the subway to your heart, your heart
Subway to you

[Chorus]
If I could make the city wait
Pull all the breaks
Like the world isn't here (Like the world isn't here)
If I could make a fast escape (Yeah)
I would leave my car in traffic
Take the subway to your heart, your heart
Subway to you
