Lyrics
Love Flashes By
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
Sunday summer in the city
My heart on automatic mode
The sun is bright, sky is blue
My body's burning for you
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
I say I love you, you say I don't know
Baby I want you, you say let me go
I say I have dreams, reality is your name
Every day you tell me, man you are insane
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
I say let's be together, you say let's just be friends
This feeling that I'm having, I feel until the end
You showed me love at first sight
We went out dancing all night
We shared the sins of life
And then - baby let's be light
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
In New York love flashes by like traffic lights
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
Love flashes by Love flashes by Love flashes by
