new york hold her tight

you can't wait to get her in your nightlife

take her out and show her all your bright lights

she wants to be there at the top of your world

but she's just a little girl

new york

hold her tight

new york

every night

whisper my name as she sleeps

don't turn her heart to stone

don't let her feel alone

if you can hear me

new york

she always dreamed and said she'd be a dancer

and you could teach her

reach her

and romance her

i know she really loves me too

but she had to find out about you

and dance her for awhile

lead her on and make her smile

but if she wants to come home

i'll be there

don't turn her heart to stone

don't let he feel alone

if you can hear me

new york

new york

is she ever coming home?
