lyrics

I took the flight to JFK
Left all the sunny days behind
I came to see you, thought of older times
You met me in the snow
It is cold in the city

New home, new friends, you showed me
At least we could exchange some words
You're oh so busy, not even time to check your mail
You know I'm well on my own
It is cold without a friend

Cold in the city
Cold
Did you ever notice
Cold without a friend

Did you ever notice, times have changed
Out of sight, out of mind
I thought you were the one who's different
I thought of friendship for our whole life
But time and space change

Why don't you care
Why don't you notice that I need you
I was at your side, you were on my mind
But the way you are now
You better get out of my life
