Lyrics

10. THEN CAME YOU
(Music and Lyric by Louis Rosen)

I came to New York on my own
I came to New York on a dare
I came to New York, came to find my future
Then came you
Then came you
Then came you…

I looked for myself in the crowd
I looked for my voice in the din
I looked for my path with no map to guide me
Then came you
Then came you
Then came you

You came like a light through the fog
You came like a strong wind at sea
You came here for me
You came here for you, and your story
Our story

The city was rust on the street
Ambition would claw through the dust
Illusion and lust in the bars and doorways
Then came you
Then came you
Then came you

If you fall eight times, rise up nine
Fall down nine times, rise up ten
Then rise again
It’s no failure to fall
If a fall comes it deepens the story Your story
Our story

I came to New York on my own
I came to New York on a quest
I came to New York, came to find my future
Then came you
Then came you
Then came you
You
Then came you
