All The Way From New York

(Album: Shadows & Light - 1992)

I'm gonna ask you for something, and it may sound like a lot.
I've never really asked you for anything, no.
We've always lived so far apart

[Chorus:]
Would you fly all the way from New York to see me?
Could you fly all the way to stand here next to me?
I didn't think so
But here you are with me.

I was hanging on to nothing as a child.
And my brother, he used to slam into walls
Everyone called him wild
Yes it's been a while since I've had a day,
Where I don't wish away all the fear, all the fear
That's why it's so hard to ask

[Chorus]

Thank you for coming.
You'll never know what it means (ah..ah)
'Cause no one ever cared enough about you
How were you supposed to know what I need
You'll never know what it means
But thank you for coming.

[Chorus]
