The Snows of New York
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can see you now by the light of the dawn,
And the sun is rising slow,
We have talked all night, and I can't talk anymore,
But I must stay and you must go;
You have always been such a good friend to me,
Through the thunder and the rain,
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
Lift your heart and think of me;
There are those who fail, there are those who fall,
There are those who will never win,
Then there are those who fight for the things they believe,
And these are men like you and me;
In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore
Leaving footprints by the sea,
And when there was just one set of prints in the sand,
That was when you carried me;
You have always been such a good friend to me,
Through the thunder and the rain,
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
Lift your heart and think of me;
When you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
Lift your heart and think of me,
Lift your heart and think of me.
