Lyrics

[00:00.65]
[00:11.53] Build a fire for Val Jester
[00:17.50] Build a room for your love
[00:23.75] Take your time when you tell her
[00:29.95] How she lives in your blood
[00:34.77]
[00:38.51] You should have looked after her better
[00:43.89] You should have looked after her more
[00:53.97] You should have locked the door
[00:56.99]
[01:16.00] Fill her coat with weapons
[01:19.14] And help her get it on
[01:26.50] Cause one day when she goes
[01:33.14] She's gone
[01:34.70]
[01:41.00] You should have held onto her better
[01:47.58] You should have held onto her more
[01:56.70] You should have locked the door
[01:59.60]
[02:04.00] All the most important people in New York are nineteen
[02:10.70] All the most important people in New York
[02:16.50] All the most important people in New York are nineteen
[02:23.44] All the most important people in New York
[02:28.50]
