| It's not just New York at the end of the day
|
| Let tears shine bent on steel
|
| Cut clothes for a yes, a no
|
| In the middle of Chinatown under the eye of neon lights
|
| We clean the brass in the back rooms
|
| Blowing to live a less wonky life
|
| Let the taxis groove the amps loudly
|
| Full on the "Hey Jobi ???" move
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| Not just in New York
|
| It's not just Broadway under the harsh light
|
| Weigh gold and naked girls
|
| Let life crumble at the foot of the skyscrapers
|
| Let a century tumble without making lace
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| Not just in New York
|
| I run, I run, the night goes by
|
| This girl hurts me alone in the city
|
| The blue note that smokes and lingers
|
| Wise hearts that play halls
|
| Not just New York deep in the winter
|
| Let's count the dead, the love affair
|
| Abandoned backyards
|
| Standard & Poor's, Paris ???
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just New York that I love in silence
|
| Leave chords in dancing words
|
| Alexandrians alone with Cendrars
|
| Open in a corner like an old sidekick
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| Not just in New York
|
| I run, I run, the night goes by
|
| I liked her alone in the city
|
| Not just New York deep in the winter
|
| Let's count the dead, the love affair
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| It's not just in New York
|
| Not just in New York |
