    My love has gone
    His boots no longer by my door
    He left at dawn and as I slept, I felt him go
    [Loop of Erik Satie, as in Pet Shop Boys' Jack The Lad]

    New York, New York, temperature's droppin'
    The band's out shoppin', not stoppin' 'til ears pop
    Cops protect shops, lots of yellow cabs and bellhops
    And it never stops

    I'm waitin' to do an interview, so much to tell you
    Today I feel close enough to smell you
    Additional dates they were plannin' just fell through
    Florida's out, we fly September 22 to Heathrow
    So there's not really long to go
    Tonight will be a brilliant show
    Lettin' you know I miss you
    More than four hits the floor at a party
    Send my love to everybody
    Please, send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...)
    Send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...

    Honey, I'm writin' from D.C., feelin' queasy
    Stayin' healthy on the road isn't easy
    The TM recommend Sanatogen
    Not one of them could resist takin' the piss
    I miss you like a lock in the door what's more
    I go to sleep with my Walkman 'cos half the crew snore
    Don't mean to be a bore, everybody's been great
    But there's fifteen of us in a bus state-to-state
    So I stay up late with a tape or meditate
    My bed is travellin' at fifty-five mph
    When we make it to L.A., I'll still be miles away
    It's not my best day I'm gonna get some rest
    God bless

    My love has gone
    (wo wo)
    My love has gone (has has has ...)
    (wo wo)

    We just stopped a diner so I'm takin' time
    To write a few lines. I'm fine, sun shinin'
    Bus driver's reclinin' on the grass as the trucks pass
    Gleamin' with a flash of sunlight from the glass
    On the windscreen. As for us there's too much to relate
    We've done five gigs but we're only in our third state
    America's big! You'd love how they pile up your plate
    Only place in the world even I could gain weight
    Our next date is Wilmington, Delaware, Open air
    There's a rumor Melle Mel'll be there
    Anyway, all the best, God bless I'm yawning
    I really miss watching you get dressed in the morning

    My love has gone
    (wo wo)
    My love has gone
    (wo wo)
    My love has gone
    No earthly ships will ever
    Bring him home
