New York, to that tall skyline, I come Flying in from London to your door New York, looking down on Central Park Where they say you should not wander after dark
New York, like a scene from all those movies But you're real enough to me For there's a heart A heart that lives in New York
A heart in New York arose on the street I write my song to that city heartbeat A heart in New York, the love in her eyes An open door and a friend for the night
New York, you got money on your mind And my words won't make a dime's Worth of difference So here's to you, New York
