,  (  held for two bars)
 I'm walking down broadway
 Each foot step is a new love letter
 I'm trying to make eye  contact
 With each  and every stranger that I pass
 Thinking about the city
 It's living  proof people need to be together
 I'm thinking about how I just want to open  up
 And give  and give and give
 And it's ok  for you to care
 Cause I can feel  you in the air
 And while you wonder  "how's  this gonna end?"
 I only want it to begin
 I'm thinking about desire
 I've had to learn how to sin successfully
 I'm thinking about bliss
 And bliss is all  dressed up
 And there's no one to dance with
 Remembering her smile  and the nuclear  bomb
 And the reasons I loved her
 Walking through Central  Park
 I'm in a foriegn  country and I'm waiting for a sign
That  it's ok  for you to care
Cause  I'm not going  anywhere
 And while you wonder  if you  should let me in
 I only want it to begin
 I'm still singing
Twisting  new melodies, breaking  arrangements
 Thinking about my heart
I  guess you've heard, sometimes  it's heavy
But  I just keep moving
 When I  hit a wall, I look up at the sky
 I'm thinking about my  maker
 In spite  of all this I know she won't give up on me
 And its ok  for you to care
 Cause I can taste  you everywhere
 While it's true
All  straight things must bend
 I only want it to begin
 I only want it to begin
 I only want it to begin
 I only want it to begin
 The End.. Hope you enjoyed!
