New York, to that tall skyline I come, flyin' in from London to your door
 New York, lookin' down on Central Park
 Where they say you should not wander after dark
 
New York, like a scene from all those movies
 But you're real enough to me, but there's a heart
 A heart that lives in New York
 
A heart in New York, a rose on the street
 I write my song to that city heartbeat
 A heart in New York, a love in her eye, an open door and a friend for the night
 
New York, you got money on your mind
 And my words won't make a dime's worth a difference, so here's to you New York
 
New York, now my plane is touching down
