New York's In Love

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.

Do you see that thing

I'm sure it's love

Would you do one thing

New York's in love

The city grew wings in the back of the night

The clouds are stuck like candy-floss

She sees the rich trash having all the fun

Makes her wonder where they get the energy from

There's nothing you can do to her

This city's all clean and waiting

I don't mean to wait too long

But this joint can't get much higher

Chorus:

New York's in love-

With her big green eyes

And her long blonde hair

New York's in flames

New York's in love

With the way she talks

And the way she walks

New York's in love

Goo Goo Goo Goo Goo Goo

My, oh my, it's a tom-tom beat

No-one knows they've had their day

We can dance and we can see the singles swing

Everybody's waiting for the Go-Go Boys.

You're turned to stone by the family

It's now the dead speak to the living

Nothing left here but a raging blaze

I don't mean to wait too long

(chorus)
