The days were long
and the nights so cold
the pages turned
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 oh my
and it was New York
New York
She had
poisoned his sweet
mind
Mmmmmmm
The wolves they howled
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
a 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 oh my
and it was New York
New York
She had
poisoned his sweet
mind
The greatest times
I don't wanna hear it
Your new latin lines
I don't wanna hear it
The new found friends
she introduced you to
I don't wanna know them
I just wanna be with you
Please don't make me
go to
New York.....
New York
And she took your
heart away oh boy
and it was New York
New York
She poisoned
your sweet mind
She poisoned
your sweet mind
