Bastian Baker - 79 Clinton Street

If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
And if you take my hand you’d be my lovely girl
If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
And if you take my hand…

Lower east side, the midnight lights.
A man is hangin’, the law’s not on his side
Tonight I won’t buy his pills.
I guess I spent too much on my Big Apple bill

A friend and I went out for dinner.
I had Italian food; he went with a burger.
With spicy sauce on a precipice of lips,
He’s raring to go to the club I already miss.

If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
And if you take my hand you’d be my lovely girl.
If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
And if you take my hand,
Well, you take my hand.

We’re walking fast, Meatpacking is waiting.
In a yellow cab we start flirting.
She’s sweet and sexy, my friend can’t take her charm,
Let’s see who’ll be the first snuggled in her arms.

Eleven dollars, I can afford this,
I gave a good tip, like I’d promised.
Elevator elevates us to the highest floor,
In as second we’ll be knocking on the club’s front door.
I think back to my life and I beg.
Give me more!

If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
And if you take my hand you’d be my lovely girl.
If you take my hand I’ll be the king of the world
If you take my hand,
Well, you take my hand
Blame it on our sorrow
Smiles have disappeared
Who could be our hero?
Anyone here?

I’m sorry for the love you lost
Yeah I m sorry for the love you lost

We’re leaving tomorrow and everyone knows
That the memories we have are as precious as gold

One bag, no shoes and little hope
Bombs broke down our home
I leave it all

The days are hot and the nights cold
Sickness of all sort
I leave it all

I’m sorry for the love you lost
Yeah I m sorry for the love you lost

We’re leaving tomorrow and everyone knows
That the memories we have are as precious as gold

I’m saying goodbye
Saving my tears coz I ain’t gonna cry
In front of you.
So I m saying goodbye. I’ll think of you once I ve started to fly.

I’m sorry for the love you lost
Yeah I’m sorry for the love you lost

We’re leaving tomorrow and everyone knows
That the memories we have are as precious as gold

Blame it on our sorrow
Smiles have disappeared
Who could be our hero?
Anyone here?
