New York City

Lyrics

You called me last night on the telephone
 And I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone
 You said, "It's snowing, it's snowing - God I hate this weather!"
 Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together
 Instrumental
 We met in the springtime at a rock-n-roll show
 It was on 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
 'Cause 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
 Instrumental
 Statue of Liberty, Staten Island Ferry,
 Co-op City, "Cats" and Tiffany's
 Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge
 The Empire State where Dylan lived
 Coney Island and Times Square
 Rockefeller Center
 Wish I was there
 Instrumental
 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, got 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
 'Cause 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
 'Cause 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
 Instrumental
