new york

ooh

ooh

whoa

oh

oh

oh now now

five drinks in on friday night

we only came to dry your eyes

and get you out of your room

now this bar has closed its doors

i found my hand is holding yours

do you wanna go home so soon?

or maybe we should take a ride

through the night

and sing along to every song

that's on the radio

in the back of a taxi cab in brooklyn no

no

no

the sun could rise

burning all the street lamps out at 3 am

so

dj

play it again

until the night turns into morning

you'll be in my arms

and we'll just keep driving

along the boulevard

and if i kissed you

darling

please don't be alarmed

it's just the start of everything

if you want a new love in new york

yesterday gave me a call

stressing out about it all

said the world is moving too fast

and you don't know where to begin

'cause you've spent a lifetime fitting in

only to wind up on the other side

by yourself

and every day

screaming out

to all the people that you used to know

from a window that looks upon manhattan skyline

it's just the way that life goes

and you hear it in every song you know

so

dj

play it again

until the night turns into morning

you'll be in my arms

and we'll just keep driving

along the boulevard

and if i kissed you

darling

please don't be alarmed

it's just the start of everything

if you want a new life in new york

and every song that plays

is just like the day you had

and it's okay to cry

but i'm saying maybe that's a waste of water

you know i'm here for you

in the back of the taxi cab tonight in new york

it's just reached the morning

and you're still in my arms

and we've stopped driving

down the boulevard

and i just kissed you

darling

i hope you weren't alarmed

it's just the start of everything

that you want: a new love in new york

a new life in new york
