Paroles de la chanson

As I walk down Canal Street, I see the girls with the low-rise jeans

But they do nothing to me

'Cause these are the streets where we used to be

As I walk down Canal Street, I see the girls that could cover the magazines

But they’re just not my scene

'Cause these were the streets where we used to be

Do you still smoke on the patio?

Is your brother still in the hospital?

Do you hear me crying out for you on the radio?

I'vе got everything I thought I’d need now

But I'm still smoking cigarettеs on my couch

And it kills my mom, but it brings me back to you

And I try to go on dates

But none of them are you, none of them are you

And I look for girls with your traits

But none of them are you, none of them are you

Now I'm back in the city, and the lights are looking pretty for the holidays

But all it does is bring me back to your face

This time last year I was putting a tree up in your place

Do you still smoke on the patio?

Is your brother still in the hospital?

Do you hear me crying out for you on the radio?

I've got everything I thought I'd need now

But I'm still smoking cigarettes on my couch

And it kills my mom, but it brings me back to you

And I try to go on dates

But none of them are you, none of them are you

And I look for girls with your traits

But none of them are you, none of them are you

Was I what you wanted?

Even for a little while

Ooh-ooh (Even for a while)

Ooh-ooh (Oh-oh-oh)

Ooh-ooh

And I try to go on dates

But none of them are you, none of them are you

And I look for girls with your traits

But none of them are you, none of them are you
