I just got back to reality
It’s a brand new scene, that’s the vibe
I met a girl on the train, she was wearing a Cheshire Cat mask
I said I’m trying to make my cat famous

We didn’t talk politics
I just liked her looks
We kept it light

And by the time I knew I missed my stop we were way past 42nd St
I was, telling her my whole life story

I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem just so I could keep on talking

But I was only going to Central Park

I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem just so I could keep on talking to ya

But I was only going to Central Park

Woah oh oh

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

She was new to the city
She hadn’t been here long enough
To be pissed off about everything

Optimistic for a girl in a mask
Like a bag full of magic
And she smelled like peaches

It was like a movie
She called me on my shit

She said a little positivity
Will go a long way with me
I already like you


I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem, just so I could keep on talking

But I was only going to Central Park


I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem just so I could keep on talking to ya

But I was only going to Central Park

Woah oh oh

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

I just got back to reality
Just a broken dream and a smile
I met a girl on the train that said it’s all gonna be ok

She went on
On and on and on
Said life was good but now it’s gone
And I haven’t felt so good in so long
She lift me up

I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem just so I could keep on talking

But I was only going to Central Park

I went from Brooklyn up to Harlem just so I could keep on talking to ya

But I was only going to Central Park

Woah oh oh

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah


She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah

She got me
Going Uptown
All night, Alright
Woah woah woah
