I found a loft here in the lower east side
It’s got tall windows that almost touch the sun
At night the skyline is a beautiful sight
If you were here we could have so much fun
The walls are painted gold and blue
Like your hair, your eyes, yes just like you
Why don’t you come down here and stay for a while
And find out what it’s like to be here by my side
Meet me on the East Side
I’ll wait for you down the block
Meet me on the East side
And then we’ll go for a walk
Meet me on the East side
I really think we should talk
Meet me on the East Side
None of this is our fault
It’s just this town, It’s just this town, Oh this town
Midtown is where you always wanted to be
Among the hustle and bustle of this town
Your basement room is small and there’s no place for me
I couldn’t move in or even hang around
Below your window, limousines and tramps
Pace the street to the noise of traffic jam
Just for your sake, i hope it’s only a phase
And soon you’ll move on to find a better place
Meet me on the East Side
I’ll wait for you down the block
Meet me on the East side
And then we’ll go for a walk
Meet me on the East side
I really think we should talk
Meet me on the East Side
None of this is our fault
It’s just this town, It’s just this town, Oh this town
This town can wear you down if you don’t watch for yourself
You must believe in you and trust no-one else
Meet me on the East Side
I’ll wait for you down the block
Meet me on the East side
And then we’ll go for a walk
Meet me on the East side
I really think we should talk
Meet me on the East Side
None of this is our fault
Meet me on the East side
Meet me on the East side
Meet me on the East side
