Allen Street

Out on Allen Street, it's 7 in the morning
 If I help him up, will he give me fair warning?
 Let me lick the wounds I got while I was out last night
 Wish you were here with me but
 Your girlfriend's wasting your time
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 I feel better safe than sorry
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 I feel better safe than sorry
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 Out on Bowery at midnight in the summer
 I can't help but smile when she says I'm her lover
 Back in Harlem now, you won't even call me
 Cut myself up, now it makes me feel more holy
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 I feel better safe than sorry
 Nothing's gonna last forever
 Nothings gonna last forever
 I feel better safe than sorry
 Nothing's gonna last forever
