The days were long
and the nights so cold
The pages turn
and the tale unfolds
He left me for another lady
She stood so tall
and she never slept
There was not one moment
he could regret
He left me for another lady
He took my hand one day
and told me
He was leaving
Me disbelieving
And I I I I I I I I
Had to let him go
Her name was New York,
New York
And she took his heart
away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind
Mmmm
The wolves they howl
for my lost soul
I fell down a deep black hole
He left me for another lady
She poured the drinks
and she poured the power
Diamond girl who could
talk for hours
He left me for another lady
Now I am on my own
He told me he was leaving
And I was pleading
And I I I I I I I I
Had to let him go
Her name was New York,
New York
And she took his
heart away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind
The greatest times
I don’t want to hear it
Your new laughter lines
I don’t want to hear it
The new found friends
she introduced you to
I don’t wanna know them
I just want to be with you
Please don’t make me go to
New York
New York
And she took your
heart away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She poisoned your sweet mind
Her name was New York,
New York
And she took your
heart away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She poisoned your sweet mind
She poisoned your sweet mind
