I remember it well Feeling awkward as hell In a teenage conversation We were rocking The Strokes Then I was meeting your folks Trying to pass that initiation We never called it a date But baby I couldn't wait To see if we had the same affections That summer down by the lake We were raising the stakes To see if we'd make the same confessions And I'm slower than most on the uptake Forever in debt to the one day When the lights came on and I got it It only took me a New York minute to spot it I knew it the second I saw it You were everything that I didn't know I wanted I was ready to blow all of my student loans For the drive those winter weekends You would listen to all of my shitty songs About a guy with conflicted feelings I remember the day that I drove away When you said that we needed distance I spent the next 3 years trying to not appear Like a half of me was missing And I'm slower than most on the uptake Forever in debt to the one day... When the lights cam on and I got it It only took me a New York minute to spot it I knew it the second I saw it You were everything that I didn't know I wanted Sometimes the best things in life only come around When the rest of it's not quite working out And I'd do it again for a shot at the end game Girl that's why I was holding out One day the lights cam on and I got it It only took me a New York minute to spot it I knew it the second I saw it You were everything that I didn't know I wanted You were everything that I didn't know I wanted You were everything that I didn't know I wanted
