New York

New York, behind a thousand doors
New York, under transparent floors
You decide the time and lives
A thousand hopes of different sizes
Every feeling, every love
Every place where man must stay or go

New York, dark town without a sky
New York, too tired to feel the tyres
A million hands, a million feet
Walk the walls, warm the street
Sick old kings could never reign
While heroes sing to rise again

Through the night your shadows
Together watch the day
Invert the phases
That all faced the other way
You dream of lovers
And contacts underground
Must tell their neighbours
How the world is going around

New York, standing where stars have stood
New York, you're in my heart, my boots
Rolling you can only try
Easy ways to make the sky
Leave suspicion like a sigh
To the morning from a night that's over

New York, you're in my heart, my way
New York, forget it, now I'll stray
Every new occasion lost
Every new decision passed
Every feeling, every love
All the places I must stay or go
New York, New York
