The Hudson

I seen this guy on a Saturday night
You're looking good, yeah, you're shining bright
Seen the girls in their high-heeled shoes
Looking for love, they've got nothing to lose
Seen the boys in their skinny jeans
Acting out, yeah, they're living the dream
Feel the weight here upon my shoulder
The world is spinning as I am getting older

What happened through these years?
All I feel is fear and doubt
What happened to the confidence?
I'm older now

Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we fall apart?
Summer in the seventies, living like a king and queen
Looking back on where we are
Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we drift away?
Walking along the Hudson, singing you my love song
Never let it fade away

Seen your smile from across that room
All the girls here, they're looking at you
Seen your face under disco lights
The room is spinning but I feel all right
Time will tell if we'll be together
I dreamt about it where it didn't go better
Here I am and there you stand alone, in the dark, no one to romance

What happened to the girl I was?
I stopped believing in it all
I never realised that life would take my all

Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we fall apart?
Summer in the seventies, living like a king and queen
Looking back on where we are
Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we drift away?
Walking along the Hudson, singing you my love song
Never let it fade away

Running down where they twinkle on Broadway
Young and naïve and we were so damn reckless
Looking through the lovers and you don't know who you are, are
Now I know that there's nothing I'd change
We were running riot, we were playing the game
True love is only something you hear in the songs
It doesn't really last that long

Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we fall apart?
Summer in the seventies, living like a king and queen
Looking back on where we are
Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we drift away?
Walking along the Hudson, singing you my love song
Never let it fade away

Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we fall apart?
Summer in the seventies, living like a king and queen
Looking back on where we are
Where did it all go wrong, my love, where did we drift away?
Walking along the Hudson, singing you my love song
Never let it fade away
