New York City

You left me standing there at the top of the stoop of a federal brown stone
 You left me standing there with my heart in my hands
 Oh, life didn't let me
 Oh, pity
 New York City
 You left us standing there in our favourite café
 A petite abbey
 I saw the future landscape of different families
 Divided in two states
 Oh, and life didn't let me
 Oh, pity
 New York City
 All those dreams
 On my sleeve
 Stomach, laughing at my idiocy
 All those dreams
 So naive
 What am I gonna do now I've lost everything?
 What am I gonna do now I've lost everything?
 In the same city, in the same city that made me
 I left you wiser, then
 With realisations of romance and sorrow
 I sailed up north again
 Back to my homeland and left you forever
 Oh, she left you, didn't she?
 Oh, pity
 New York City
