New York

I am not falling in love
Not chasing a dream
Or painting a picture of you
Stand with feet on the ground
Not holding my breath
Just waiting for time to bring you

Near, I'm holding you close
I try to be patient
The distance between us breaks me
Soon be breathing you in
When I'm safely home
And the clouds break

People come
People go
You'll be waiting there
And I won't see you falter
People run
People fall
Breaking through the mist
You'll be standing taller

So tell me
New York, New York
New York, New York
Beacon of light across the sea
New York, New York
New York, New York
Hold out your hand and walk with me

You, you keep me alive
A reason to be
A friend who will make me stronger
We can talk 'til it's late
We'll wait for the sun
To wake the Manhattan skyline

When the crowds have all gone
And it's only us
We will stay here

People come
People go
You'll be waiting there
And I won't see you falter
People run
People fall
Breaking through the mist
You'll be standing taller

So tell me
New York, New York
New York, New York
Beacon of light across the sea
New York, New York
New York, New York
Hold out your hand and walk with me

Breathe you in and I
Know that you're back again
Live with me
For the rest of my lifetime, baby

People come
People go
You'll be waiting there
And I won't see you falter
People run
People fall
Breaking through the mist
You'll be standing taller

So tell me
New York, New York
New York, New York
Beacon of light across the sea
New York, New York
New York, New York
Hold out your hand and walk with me

Breathe you in and I
Know that you're back again
Live with me
For the rest of my lifetime, baby
