Lyric East Side Story
There was this girl I used to see - down on 42nd street
She d walk by on her way to work - n make the air smell so sweet
I used to sit in a coffee shop - sometimes I d have a cup
And when she d go by - she d light up the sky
Like the sun coming up
She be standin by the bus stop - driver opened up the door
I d just sit n watch her - getting on the 104
She never knew my number - never even knew my name
She climbed on board that cross-town bus I never saw her again
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
And like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
Some things you hold on to - some you just let go
Seems like the ones that you can t have
Are the ones that you want most
I think about her sometimes - I wonder if she was real
And if I ever find her I m gonna tell her how I feel
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
and like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
It s still the same old story - it s still the same old game
Up there on the eastside - life goes on the same
She never knew my number - never even knew my name
She climbed on board that cross-town bus I never saw her again
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
and like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
She d walk by on her way to work - n make the air smell so sweet
I used to sit in a coffee shop - sometimes I d have a cup
And when she d go by - she d light up the sky
Like the sun coming up
She be standin by the bus stop - driver opened up the door
I d just sit n watch her - getting on the 104
She never knew my number - never even knew my name
She climbed on board that cross-town bus I never saw her again
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
And like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
Some things you hold on to - some you just let go
Seems like the ones that you can t have
Are the ones that you want most
I think about her sometimes - I wonder if she was real
And if I ever find her I m gonna tell her how I feel
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
and like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
It s still the same old story - it s still the same old game
Up there on the eastside - life goes on the same
She never knew my number - never even knew my name
She climbed on board that cross-town bus I never saw her again
It s just another east side story
Everybody s got a tale to tell
and like a hundred guys before me
I fell under her spell
