Lyrics New York Doesn't Remind Me - Shayfer James

New York Doesn't Remind Me

New York Doesn’t Remind Me Of You
Unless I been drinkin' alone
Or if I’m with some other gal
On the subway ride home
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
I never think of that
Polka-dot dress
At the corner of Bowery and 3rd
I don’t remember those photo booth pictures
We threw in the river
When they wouldn’t burn
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Unless I been drinkin' alone
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Or all of the ways that we tried
Unless I get caught in the rain
On the lower east side
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
I don’t remember that letter
You slipped in my pocket
At St. Dymphna’s Bar
I never think of how tunnels and bridges
Could make someone
So goddamn close feel so far
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Or all of the ways that we tried
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Or how you said love doesn’t last
Unless I’m in Chinatown
Chasing the ghost of your laugh
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
I never think about pocket watch promises
Down at the 66th pier
I don’t remember that cobblestone waltz
This is nobody’s fault
God I wish you were here
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Or how you said love doesn’t last
I don’t remember
The way that you looked at me
Brooklyn is blurry and Grammercy’s gone
The smell of the books at The Strand
And that night on Randall’s Island
Oh baby where’d we go wrong
New York Doesn’t Remind me of you
Unless I been
Unless I been
Drinkin' Alone
