New York, to that tall skyline I come,
flyin' in from London to your door
New York, lookin' 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,
but there's a heart
A heart that lives in New York

A heart in New York, a rose on the street
I write my song to that city heartbeat
A heart in New York, love in her eye,
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 a difference,
so here's to you New York
