November 22nd

I've walked along the Hudson

I've seen the lights on Broadway

I've seen yellow cabs by the dozen

I've opened up the New York doorway

I've waited wished and wanted

To see your sky rise blocks

and now my dreams are haunted

And I don't want that feeling to stop

New York I kept you waiting

A diamond that rose from the sea

Now, New York and I are dating

I hope that New York loves me

I've toured around your well know sights

I've explored your concrete jungle

I've stood upon your highest heights

and felt so lucky and humble

I have been there, I did explore

I would like the clocks to rewind

I might not be in New York any more

But New York is forever in my mind
