New York Lyrics

The days were long and the nights so cold
The pages turned and the tale unfolds
He'd left me for another lady.
She stood so tall and she never slept
There was not one moment he could regret,
He'd left me for another lady
He took my hand one day and told me
he was leaving, me disbelieving
and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go

Her name was New York, New York,
And she took his heart away oh my
Her name was New York, New York,
She had poisoned his sweet mind

The wolves they howled for my lost soul
I fell down a deep black hole
He'd left me for another lady,
She poured the drinks and she poured the power
A diamond girl who could talk for hours
He'd left me for another lady.
Now I am on my own, he told me,
He was leaving, and I was pleading
And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go.

Her name New York, New York,
And she took his heart away oh my,
Her name New York, New York.
She had poisoned his sweet mind
The greatest times,
I don't wanna hear it,
Your new laughter lines,
I don't wanna hear it,
The new found friends
She introduced you to,
I don't wanna know them, I just wanna be with you

Please don't make me go to New York, New York,
and she took your heart away from mine,
And it was New York, New York,
She poisoned your sweet mind.
She poisoned your sweet mind.
