Lyre le Temps - Outside the Box

New York City

Now you put me, now you've put me as a stranger
In the middle of the city
I've decided to fight, to fight the danger
To take a walk and get some money
I have a wonderful feeling out there
Get pizzas, snack from everywhere
I took a cab like it used to be
I need a ride in New York City
I got in a lil' mess from East to West
Got lost in a funny quest
3 hours in a traffic jam
I'm in Brooklyn, talking of Uncle Sam
Now I'm feeling, now I'm feeling like a stranger
In the middle of the city
I decided I see, I see no danger
I got my walk on and got my money

Brand new "French" coming in New York City
Buildings are higher than my eyes can see
Cabs are crazy, yellow but maybe
They drive like hell, I think they wanna kill me
Step out of my place, go down 60 floors
Half an hour [I've] never seen that before
Millions people here just behind that door
There are all waiting for me

I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world
I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world

(My world, my world, my world)

I am feeling, I am feeling like a stranger
And New York is my city
For each time I'm coming here, I'm getting better
It's the meaning of my story
If you're coming, if you're coming like a stranger
By the road or cross the sea
Don't forget to send me, send me a picture
Here is mine, are you ready?

I think it's about time to get New York that shit back
No doubt
(New York City)
I've been to Brooklyn, Queens and Staten
Bronx, to the top of Manhattan
(Keep, keep it moving)
New York City
You make it happen!

I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world
I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world

Brand new life start in Big Apple city
Reality is better than my dream could be
Mens are busy, ladies are pretty
They walk like hell, I think they wanna kill me
(Can't) forget all the 24 7 stores
I remember [I've] never seen that before
With 10 million people here behind the door
We are all waiting for you

I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world
I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world

I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world
I've never seen a place like this, I'm just right on the corner
I've never seen a place like this, New York is the corner of my world
