New York Dream

You jump in your car pull your long hair back

Got your wood grain appointments and your leather is black

With yo dark sunglasses and your flip phone on send

Ridin’ along in your Mercedes Benz

But there’s something that you left behind

A pesky little detail in the back of your mind

That would be… your midnight lover

Way across town… sleepin’ under cover

Dressed for work drinkin’ latte on the balcony

Then you’re meetin’ with your lawyers down on Gramercy

Spendin’ all your daddy’s money on silky lingerie

Savin’ all your lovin’ for the man you hide away

But there’s somethin’ that you left behind

A pesky little detail in the back of your mind

That would be… the new young lover

Way across town… sleepin’ under cover

Make up your mind… before it’s too late

Your high heeled thinkin’ will take it all away

Satin seduction and powder on your face

Expensive way of livin’ that your mind will erase

Playin’ in the clubs with the in crowd you seek

While the sun starts risin’ and you’re dead on your feet

Another dance another drink a small flirtation

Droppin’ the names of your rich relations

But nobody cares they just want to get high

While the young men’s attention has just passed you by by baby

To your new young lover

Way across town… sleepin’ under cover

Make up your mind… before it’s too late

Your high heeled thinkin’ will take it all away

That would be… a new young lover

Way ‘cross town… sleepin’ under cover

Make up your mind… before it’s too late

Your high heeled thinkin’ will take it all away

So what’ll it be the new young lover

Way cross town sleepin’ under cover

Another day of shoppin’ at Saks Fifth Avenue

Better look in the mirror at what’s become of you
