She said, "We only have what's left in the room
I wanna be covered in California
Wanna be dressed in her perfume"
I said, "Let's get lost, we could run away"
But she doesn't wanna leave this place
It was never home to me anyway
But home is wherever you are
You make it hard to move on
When I can see your silhouette
On the front door as I leave
If this is how you wanted it to go
I left my heart in New York
Empty, like your word
Now all that's left for me is the afterglow
And I'm done with waiting on you to make up your mind
If it's too hard for you to see it from my side
But I can't have peace of mind
If the views of the west aren't in your eyes
I know you've got your own mind
I'm just trying to make sense of mine
(But I'm alright)
When I can see your silhouette
On the front door as I leave
If this is how you wanted it to go
I left my heart in New York
Empty, like your word
Now all that's left for me is the afterglow
(The afterglow)
I told you that I'm breathing
And tell me where you wanna go
'Cause anywhere you are is gonna be home
You make it hard to leave, I know it shows
Can't change your mind, I know, I know
Breathe in and tell me where you wanna go
'Cause anywhere you are is gonna be home
You make it hard to leave, I know it shows
When you get on the plane, I hope you come alone
I hope you come alone
(Oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh)
I'm feeling wrecked
When I can see your silhouette
On the front door as I leave
If this is how you wanted it to go
I left my heart in New York
Empty, like your word
Now all that's left for me is the afterglow
Now all that's left for me is the afterglow
