the morning came today
with rain and sheets of grey
the subway rocked me out of bed
to take me on my way
where i go
i go in style
each and every mile
you know
i'm not alone
new york is my home
i got a girl up in the bronx
she treats me like a king
i'll give her anything she wants
she is my everything
she can be hard as concrete
soft as a summer breeze
we can wake the dawn
new york is my home
new york is calling me
it's on the phone
it's like the rooftop songs
up from the cobblestones
you will never hear me say
the city street's too loud"
