New York
The days were long and the nights so coldThe pages turn and the tale unfoldsHe left me for another ladyShe stood so tall and she never sleptThe was not one moment he could regretHe left me for another lady
He took my hand one day and told meHe was leavingMe disbelievingAnd I, I, I, I, I, I, I, IHad to let him go
Her name was New York, New YorkAnd she took his heart away oh myHer name was New York, New YorkShe had poisoned his sweet mindMmmm
The wolves they howled for my lost soulI fell down a deep black holeHe left me for another ladyShe poured the drinks and she poured the powerDiamond girl who could talk for hoursHe left me for another lady
Now I am on my ownHe told me he was leavingAnd I was pleadingAnd I, I, I, I, I, I, I, IHad to let him go
Her name was New York, New YorkAnd she took his heart away oh myHer name was New York, New YorkShe had poisoned his sweet mind
The greatest timesI don't wanna hear itYour new laughter linesI don't wanna hear itThe new found friends she introduced you toI don't wanna know them I just want to be with youPlease don't make me go to...
New York, New YorkShe took your heart away oh myHer name was New York, New YorkShe poisoned your sweet mind
She poisoned your sweet mind.
