Every night I'm having the same old dreams

About you and me, and what our lives could be



Gonna make a move, gonna blow this joint

We're outta there, 'cause this ain't no career

Followin' the signs, gonna show you this boy can do it right



"And now the story goes"



Time went by, city's eatin' us alive

I won't lie, don't know if we'll get by



Givin' all I've got just ain't enough

In this place, they call the human race

How could I be so blind, from the feelings

Feelings I had inside "Just too hard"



New York you let me down last night

Never seen the light

New York you let me down last night

New York you let me down last night

Bit off more than I can chew

New York you let me down, let me down last night



Don't look back, is what they always say

Lost this time, gonna leave it all behind



Guess I'll head back home

Gonna pack our bags we're out of here

'Cause this was no career



New York you let me down last night

Never seen the light

New York you let me down last night

New York you let me down last night

Bit off more than I can chew

New York you let me down, let me down last night



I've finally given'up

Have to get away



New York you let me down last night

Won't go without a fight

New York you let me down, let me down let me down last night
