| The days were long and the nights so cold
|
| The pages turn and the tale unfolds
|
| He left me for another lady
|
| She stood so tall and she never slept
|
| There was not one moment he could regret
|
| He left me for another lady
|
| He took my hand one day and told me He was leaving
|
| Me disbelieving
|
| And I I I I I I I I Had to let him go And it was New York, New York
|
| And she took his heart away oh my And it was New York, New York
|
| She had poisoned his sweet mind
|
| The wolves they howled for my lost soul
|
| I fell down a deep black hole
|
| He left me for another lady
|
| She poured the drinks and she poured the power
|
| Diamond girl who could talk for hours
|
| He left me for another lady
|
| Now I am on my own
|
| He told me he was leaving
|
| And I was pleading
|
| And I I I I I I I I Had to let him go And it was New York, New York
|
| And she took his heart away oh my And it was New York, New York
|
| She had poisoned his sweet mind
|
| The greatest times
|
| I don’t want to hear it Your new laughter lines
|
| I don’t want to hear it The new found friends she introduced you to I don’t wanna know them I just want to be with you
|
| Please don’t make me go to
|
| New York
|
| New York
|
| And she took your heart away oh my And it was New York, New York
|
| She poisoned your sweet mind
|
| And it was New York, New York
|
| And she took your heart away oh my And it was New York, New York
|
| She poisoned your sweet mind
|
| She poisoned your sweet mind |
