Not for the life of me will I figure out why
You stuck a knife in me just passing by
Didn't even look at me, didn't even smile
Maybe you didn't think I was worthwhile
Hundreds of passerby's, it had to be you
That I could identify in this long queue
But what with these mortal wounds
Would you have me do
At four in the afternoon, fifth avenue?
I am alive my love, I will survive
I am alive my love, I will survive
I am alive my love
Quarter 'til five
