New York It's I

New York, lie still
It's just a sleeping pill
Promise it won't kill
The dreams that you spur
Promise they won't blur
Street lights and flying cars
All stop, a shooting star
By the river

New York, here, hold my hand
Hope you understand
We were the band
Clapping hands, streaming tears
Now all I see is fear
No more claps
Empty seats, they don't meet
It's a sudden strap

All grounded, and hounded
Day and Night, all this fright
This sitting tight
But it's alright, New York
I am here, the sky is clear
The streets are wet
New York, you ain't no safety net
New York, in time, you will walk
You will sway, that certain way
And the follies flock

New York, here, hold my hand
Hope you understand
We were the band
Clapping hands, streaming tears
Now all I see is fear
No more claps
Empty streets, they don't meet
A sudden strap
