New York (radio edit) Lyrics

The days were long and the night so cold
The pages turn and the tale unfolds
He left me for another lady
She stood so tall and she never slept
There was not one moment he could regret
He 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 from mine
Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind

The wolves they howl 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
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 was New York, New York
And she took his heart away from mine
Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind
The greatest times
I don't want to hear it
Your new life tonight
I don't want to hear it

The newfound friends
She introduced you to
I don't want to know them
I just want to be with you

Please don't make me go to
New York, New York
She took your heart away from mine
Her name was New York, New York
She poisoned your sweet mind
She poisoned your sweet mind
