[00:10.48]New York City spread herself before you
[00:14.59]With her bangles and her spangles and her stars
[00:20.58]You were impressed with the city so undressed
[00:25.72]You had to go out cruising all the bars
[00:32.28]Your business trip extended through the weekend
[00:37.42]Suburban boy here for your first time
[00:41.93]From the 27th floor above the midtown roar
[00:47.24]You were dazzled by her beauty and her crime
[00:51.83]And she's every girl you've seen in every movie
[00:57.41]Every dame you've ever known on late night TV
[01:01.93]In her steam and steel is the passion you feel
[01:09.18]Endlessly
[01:12.62]New York is a woman she'll make you cry
[01:17.07]And to her you're just another guy
[01:24.96]Look down and see her ruined places
[01:29.26]Smoke and ash still rising to the sky
[01:34.13]She's happy that you're here but when you disappear
[01:39.26]She won't know that you're gone to say goodbye
[01:42.73]
[02:04.17]New York is a woman she'll make you cry
[02:09.01]And to her you're just another guy
[02:13.41]And she's every girl you've seen in every movie
[02:18.89]Every dame you've ever known on late night tv
[02:23.70]In her steam and steel is the passion you feel
[02:30.42]Desperately
[02:34.03]New York is a woman she'll make you cry
[02:38.80]And to her you're just another guy
[02:42.17]
