Lyrics:

Stumbling along
Someone somewhere's been neglecting things
I've known all along
It's wrong to go about expecting things
But looking for love in this city
Is like getting burned without feeling the pain

Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain

Chilled by the breeze
Autumn shadows are concealing things
Worn at the knees
Dungarees begin revealing things
Lord, I'm so low and lonely
Worst of all is this rain keeps on falling

Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain

Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lord, I'm so low and lonely
Worst of all is this rain keeps on falling

Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
All alone in New York in the rain
All alone in New York in the rain
