New York City |
| You called me last night |
| On the telephone |
| And I was glad to hear from you |
| 'Cos I was all alone |
| You said it’s snowing, it’s snowing |
| God I hate this weather |
| Now I’d walk through blizzards |
| Just to get us back together |
| We met in the springtime |
| At a rock’n’roll show |
| It was in the Bowery |
| When it was time to go |
| We kissed on the subway |
| In the middle of the night |
| I held your hand, you held mine |
| It was the best night of my life |
| 'Cos everyone’s your friend |
| In New York City |
| And everything looks beautiful |
| When you’re young and pretty |
| The streets are paved with diamonds |
| And there’s just so much to see |
| But the best thing about New York City is |
| You and me |
| Statue of Liberty, Staten Island ferry |
| (. ??* .), Breakfast at Tiffany’s |
| Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge |
| The Empire State where King Kong lives |
| Coney Island and Times Square |
| Rockefeller Centre |
| Wish I was there… |
| You wrote me a letter |
| Just the other day |
| Said springtime is coming soon |
| So why don’t you come to stay |
| I packed my stuff, I’m on the bus |
| I can’t believe it’s true |
| I’m three days from New York City |
| And I’m three days from you |
| And everyone’s my friend |
| In New York City |
| And everything looks beautiful |
| When you’re young and pretty |
| The streets are paved with diamonds |
| And there’s just so much to see |
| But the best thing about New York City is |
| You and me… |
| You and me… |
| You and me… |
| You and me… |
