Smoke rises from the clustered manhole,
You look at me, thinking you're finally home.
Car horns and chatter fill the air,
The rotten smell has us in despair.
This town has a new story at every corner,
This town makes us want more and more.
I'm always going to be here for you,
Just find the constellation hanging above Fifth Avenue.
The week we spent in New York together,
Made my life feel so much better.
The croissant you devoured on Seventh,
Took you to a new kind of heaven.
We had a picnic under the spring sun in Bryant,
Your smile at the top of the city was so vibrant.
The week we spent in New York,
Was all I needed to feel safe in this world.
You broke my bank account,
When we window shopped down south.
The pizza in Little Italy cost more than us combined,
But for you, I'd spent every single dime.
The city illuminates the night's sky,
The stars can't be seen, but I see mine.
The week we spent in New York together,
Made my life feel so much better.
The croissant you devoured on seventh,
Took you to a new kind of heaven.
We had a picnic under the spring sun in Bryant,
Your smile at the top of the city was so vibrant.
The week we spent in New York,
Replaced my ice with a warmth.
New York City changed me,
I can remember the neon lights of broadway,
and the way your face lit up on the streets,
Please never take that memory away from me.
I'll forever owe New York City,
And all of its unmatched beauty.
The week we spent in New York together,
Made my life feel so much better.
The croissant you devoured on seventh,
Took you to a new kind of heaven.
We had a picnic under the spring sun in Bryant,
Your smile at the top of the city was so vibrant.
The week we spent in New York,
Made a shattered heart work.
