Lyrics
Here we go, here we go, one more time
How many cabs in New York City?
How many angels on a pin?
How many notes in a saxophone?
How many tears in a bottle of gin?
How many times did you call my name?
Knock at the door, but you couldn't get in
I know I've been careless
I've been wrapped up in a shell
Nothing could get through to me
Acting like I didn't know
I had friends and family
I saw worry in their eyes
But it didn't look like fear to me
I know I've been careless
I lost my tenderness
I've been careless
I took bad care of it
Like a mixture in a bottle
Like a frozen-over lake
Like a long-time painted smile
I got so hard I had to crack
You were there, you held the line
You're the one that brought me back
I know I've been careless
I lost my tenderness
I've been careless
I took bad care of it
How many cabs in New York City?
How many angels on the head of a pin?
How many notes in a saxophone?
How many tears in a bottle of gin?
How many times did you call my name?
Knock at the door, but you couldn't get in
How many stars in the Milky Way?
How many ways can you lose a friend?
I've been careless
I don't wanna be careless again
(Ooh)
Further, longer
(Ooh)
Higher, older
