Lyrics
NEW YORK CITY
By Patrick O'Connor and Larry Bagby
Still trying to figure out what went wrong
Thought we'd last forever cause we seemed so strong
Saying I love you felt so right
Now I lie awake, so many lonely nights
Every place I go and thing I see
Reminds me of you and how we used to be
You took more than my heart
When you ran from me
So please give me back New York City
You ruined airplane flights and NYC
Bubble baths and summer sweet tea
Banana pancakes, roses too
And green-eyed girls now make me blue
Fourth Of July is dead to me
So please give me back New York City.
How can I ever slow dance again?
Or play Pictionary with my friends
No more rose-filled nights or strawberries
Or waking up with you next to me
You ruined airplane flights and NYC
That Delilah song by the Plain White T's
Diet Coke and chocolate too
And green-eyed girls now make me blue
Billy Joel's now dead to me
So please give me back New York City
Some days I think I'm doing fine
Til I see the movie Walk The Line
And all the shows we used to watch on TV
Or how good it felt...making love to you...
You ruined airplane flights and NYC
Bubble baths and summer sweet tea
I can't swim I can't barbecue
And green eyed girls now make me blue.
Butterfly kisses flew away from me
Cause I left my heart...
(Cause I left my heart)
Cause you broke my heart
(Cause you broke my heart)
...in New York City
