So whadya want?
Is it dj vu or have I been here before?
I don't know but
Everything about you is still the same
Everything about you is so alive
Too much time around, you start to kick my ass
Too much time away, I lose my lease
(New York love me) so good, so good
(New York love me) keep my head up
(NY love me) NYC, I see
(NY why me) am I NY?
Try to run away
Ya know it's no use
Tongue in cheek so I can't speak
Vibrations knock my screws loose
Everything about you is still the same
Everything about you is so alive
Too much time around, you start to kick my ass
Too much time away, I lose my lease
(New York love me) so good, so good
(New York love me) keep my head up
(NY love me) NYC, I see
(NY why me) am I NY?
Written in the air
Written on return
Nowhere bright as here nowhere else
Written in the air
Written on return
Stones and fever dreams nothing else...
NYC see ya real soon
Try to run away
Ya know it's no use
Tongue in cheek so I can't speak
Vibrations knock my screws loose
Well it ain't love
It ain't art
It's pressure
Pain in the heart that moves me
NYC
That grooves me
NYC
You move me
NYC you lose me
NYC
Everything about you is still the same
Everything about you is so alive
Too much time around, you start to kick my ass
Too much time away, I lose my lease
(New York love me) so good, so good
(New York love me) keep my head up
(NY love me) NYC, I see
(NY why me) am I NY?
