Lyrics
The hands on the clock seem to stick to the face
But the seconds are turning to minutes
And minutes to days
I try not to look at the grin on its face
But I know that it knows that I've got to get out of this place
Time to close the gate, time to lock the door
Time to greet the street, I'm so happy, I'm walking on air
People staring but I don't care
Taxi, call a taxi
Yellow taxi, taxi, taxi
Don't take the subway, don't go that way
It's not a safe way, don't go that way
Car across town, don't want trouble
Got to get there on the double
She'll be waiting, I'll be running
She'll be thinking I'm not coming
I can't wait to talk to you
And tell you what I'd like to do
We'll find a little restaurant
A little vino for the ambiance
In the candlelight, we're holding hands
Time always flies when you really don't want it to
The waiters are staring at me but I've only got eyes for you
Leave us alone, we don't wanna go home
Put your chairs on the tables
We can let ourselves out when you've gone
Time to take you home, time to say goodnight
We don't wanna part, let's be together tonight
Let's be together tonight
Taxi, call a taxi
Yellow taxi, taxi, taxi
Don't take the subway, don't go that way
It's not a safe way, we'll go our way
Car across town, back to my place
Pull the shades down, screw the rat race
We're alone now, undercover
Hang a sign out, "Don't disturb"
Now I'm really close to you
I'll tell you what I want to do
I wanna take you to a tropical place
Beneath the stars I'll see the love in your face
In the pale moonlight, we're holding hands
Following the footprints in the sand
It's been a hell of a day in the city
Now it's time to get away
