Lyrics
Chinatown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Knockoff watch and paper fan
Through the busy streets you held my hand
As we walked down Canal
And that's the picture in my head
I remember every word you said
I trusted you
Yeah, yeah
I didn't hear from you
Yeah, yeah
Tell me what did I do?
Your empty words, your promises
You killed my faith, I was just a kid
You let me down
Now all I have is Chinatown
A secret that you should have kept
Yeah, you showed up and then you left
Why'd you come at all?
And I don't miss you anymore
I made myself stop waiting for
A letter or a call
Yeah, yeah
I didn't hear from you
Yeah, yeah
Tell me what did I do?
Your empty words, your promises
You killed my faith, I was just a kid
You let me down
Now all I have is Chinatown
All the things you missed
Who you could have been
You had your chance
You made your choice
You're nothing to me now
Yeah, yeah
I didn't hear from you
Yeah, yeah
Tell me what did I do?
Your empty words, your promises
You killed my faith, I was just a kid
You let me down
Now all I have is Chinatown
Yeah, yeah
All I have is Chinatown
Yeah, yeah
