New York City Lyrics & Chords By Eddi Reader

I was down in New York city
I was trying to get back on my feet
I was looking out for someone else to think about
and there’s no harm in that

you knock me out on these streets with your beauty
there’s only so much I want us to say
if I could find us a room in New York city
there’d be no holding back
there’d be no going back

in New York, New York
we’re out in the morning
we’ve seen out the night
walking the dawn
New York, New York
the light hits the buildings
we’re out on the town
it’s just like the movies
in New York city

down the streets we’d walk and we’d find our way
for a summer I’d sware I’d be true
down in Union Square, you held me there
I was so far from home
I was out on my own
drinking in the heart of New York city
you were holding your hand out to me
I was down and out in New York city
trying to get back on my feet

in New York, New York
we’re out in the morning
we’ve seen out the night
walking the dawn
New York, New York
the light hits the buildings
we’re out on the town
it’s just like the movies
New York, New York
we’re out in the morning
we’ve seen out the night
walking the dawn
in New York
the light hits the buildings
we’re out on the town
it’s just like the movies
in New York city
New York city
in New York city
