Lyrics
God, God doesn't it all feel the same
Though every place changes with age
She doesn't know where the time went
You blink and it's fluttered away
Now it looks like the movies
The way the sun hits the buildings
As she walks home from her job that she's dying to quit
Then her parents text photos of her things from the house
They're asking her if it's okay to throw out
And it makes her so sad but she couldn't say why
She's growing up fast but can't figure out life
If she tries
And she tries
She stands out on her fire escape
Now hoping that someone will see her
They'll make her feel like she's queen of New York for the night
Oh, when you're 19 and drunk for the first time on oxygen
Oh, what a beautiful feeling
To feel like you're queen of New York for the night
If only for the night
And doesn't it all feel so strange
She's finally noticed she's changed
She doesn't know where the time went
You blink and it flutters away
Now she's growing impatient
At the Lorimer station
With all the kids who don't know that this moment'll pass
Then her friend texts her photos of her two-year-old child
She sends her a heart without thinking to smile
And it makes her so sad but she couldn't say why
She's growing up fast and can't figure out life
If she tries
And she tries
She stands out on her fire escape
Now hoping that someone will see her
They'll make her feel like she's queen of New York for the night
Oh, when you're 19 and drunk for the first time on oxygen
Oh, what a beautiful feeling
To feel like you're queen of New York for the night
If only for the night
She stands out on her fire escape
Now hoping that someone will see her
They'll make her feel like she's queen of New York for the night
Oh, when you're 19 and drunk for the first time on oxygen
Oh, what a beautiful feeling
To feel like you're queen of New York for the night
If only for the night
If only for the night
