New York City |
| Snow falls on the Hudson |
| Souls are lost by the lonely dozen |
| She was here and then she wasn’t |
| Out there in the weather |
| Was it a frostbitten wind or a whisper? |
| I could swear I felt her |
| If I knew her face |
| If I knew her name |
| If I knew, would you? |
| How long can my heart live with the key |
| Kept away from its cage of locked ribs? |
| If it’s mine, why is it in prison |
| Out there in the weather? |
| Where it’s cold as it is bitter |
| It could die or it could find her |
| If you knew her face |
| If you knew her name |
| If you knew, would you? |
| New York City, would you give her to me? |
| I’d be yours forever, my old man says |
| «If you’re good the world gives you |
| The things you ask for» |
| New York, was I wrong when I built |
| My dreams on a little island? |
| Did I ever really want them? |
| Bridges in all directions, three in the morning |
| Can’t believe I never saw them |
| Maybe I should be going |
| If she knew my face |
| If she knew my name |
| If she knew, would you? |
| New York City, would you give her to me? |
| I’d be yours forever, you know what I’m after |
| Tell me how many times do I have to ask you? |
| I’d be yours forever |
