Lyrics:
There’s a man with your eyes sitting on this subway train
I wanna ask him if he remembers my name
Across from me riding the F downtown
Staring ahead through the doors to the blur underground

I see you with your hazel wink and Cheshire grin
Me where the ring I removed left a groove on my skin
Pressing your back against mine once we were alone
Pressing a promise of something more real than I’d known

Oh we were young and high
In a 3am world
Running against our dreams before they could start
With shotgun hearts

Delancey and Broome and a bottle of single malt scotch
There were holes in that night to fall in where the spin wouldn’t stop
We wandered the cobblestone streets in our costume sin
Late for our lovers and lying about where we’d been

We were Young and high
In a 3am world
Running against our dreams before they could start
Moonless sky
A one time swirl
Running head over heels through the night making love in the dark
With shotgun hearts

So you never grow old never change you just stay 25
Breathing my name down my neck as I ride this line ----

Now I know it’s not you it’s been years since I’ve seen your face
Surprising what comes back to haunt when you visit a place
That night when this same train spun like a tilt a whirl
Maybe I’m riding it just to remember that girl

We were Young and high
In a 3am world
Running against our dreams before they could start
Moonless sky
A one time swirl
Running head over heels through the night making love in the dark
With shotgun hearts
