Love this song, it's great! It's one of the many Prince songs that was never released, but should have been. Love the piano, and the jazzy feel to this song. This song rocks!!!!

Hmmm ... summer in New York..

Well, it takes time. You gotta know the right people, and some people are not willing to share what they have.

Leaving For New York

Sitting there on the purple lawn
U've been there since dawn
Wonderin' why I've gone
And 4 just 2 long

U're sorry U gave into me
Giving up your virginity
U're so afraid that U will be
So alone away from me

Though I said I'd never leave U
This is something that I must do
But I never will forget U
Unless U forget 2 come into my dream

Leaving 4 New York in the morning
But I'm leaving behind a love extraordinaire
But I'm taking with me memories of when we made love
And all the other lovely feelings that we share

U overcome that misery
Passed up by life's complexity
Picturing your love around me
Only adds 2 your agony

U're undisturbed by the rain
Your pain must be 2 strong
And even though U wait in vain
U'll wait 4 me no matter how long

Though I said I'd never leave U
This is something that I must do
But I never will forget U
Unless U forget 2 come into my dream

CHORUS:
I'm leaving 4 New York in the morning
But I'm leaving behind a love extraordinaire
But I'm taking with me memories of when we made love
And all the other lovely feelings that we share
{repeat}

Never heard of it.

Compared to other B-sides like 17 Days, How Come U Don't Call Me and Splash, where does this song rate for you? Scale of 1 to 10.

Cool song.
