lyrics

R: I’ve Been to London, I have been to Paris, France
I’ve been all over, seen the world inside a glance
But I tell you baby that none of them can match
Those bright street corners, and the feeling that can last

You feel alone when you’re in a crowded city square
But when you’re lonely you will know they’re always there
It’s where I’ll make my way I’ve got to have a chance
I way I can push forward , a way I can advance

Well don’t you know that it’s a special place
An isolated case of things done right
There’s nothing better in the whole world around
Than those New York City Nights

A: I’ve been to Texas, I have been to Montreal
I tell you honey, it was not so bad at all
The different people and the history was a thrill
But I needed more adventure, I got no more time to kill

B: You see the bright lights on a sunny afternoon
Over the high rise, I was leaving much too soon
I must get back there, throw away this deep malaise
Back to the action, so I don’t waste away my days

B: It never sleeps, there’s too much going on
A mystery, it always moves forward
There’s nothing better in the whole world around
Than those New York City Nights

B: Well don’t you know that it’s a special place
An isolated case of things done right
There’s nothing better in the whole world around
Than those New York City Nights
