Joe Mansman and the Midnight Revival Band - Empire State

There's a storm on the rise
All the push and the pull of the summit is fading
Here i am in disguise
Bruised to compare all the worries and waiting
Try not to think twice
The sun in my eyes leaves me blind to the shaking
Leave me here on this side
Of this east coast highway
And I'll find my way to New York

Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home

There's a course in the tides
Begging for grace in Virginia's arms tonight
Leading me like I'm blind
Blue and despaired I'm missing her skies
Tied up in a fight
Fixing to clear my heart for the taking
Send me left to right
On this eastern bypass
And I'll find my way to New York

Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home

There's a girl in New York
Waiting for me to find what I'm chasing
Left her bags at the door
It's a no through road
But I'll find my way back north

Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
