White Street

Headed to the subway
It's early for a Saturday
I'm seven minutes behind
Time is not on my side.

Yeah I left on my own
I silenced my phone
The night's young but it's gonna run long
I walked the length of four Eno songs
Gonna get paid tonight down on White.

(You know I've never been able to say no to love)

The patrons here are boring
My set is not their story
Dolly has been quantized
It's so wrong it feels right
And maybe in the morning light
The pale blue of sunrise
You'll get your fifth chance to make it right
Like a lost patient shocked back to life.

Gonna get paid tonight down on White.

Drink in hand, hole in heart
I'm searching for warmth under cover of dark
If you catch my eyes I just might take you up tonight.

You know I've never been able to say no to love
No I cannot say no to love.
