It's just the myth of the city
New York, New York
Living life by committee
New York, New York
Spent a couple of years
Running around all over town
I was just a child then
I'm much older than that now
Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there's nothing left there
I've been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I'd like to go back there
But is it gone now? Who knows
There was a time when we dreamt wide awake
Dreamt of crossing oceans
Just crossing oceans for the sake
We were all living in timelines short and long
All life is for forgiving
It's the only way to get along
Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there's nothing left there
I've been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I'd like to go back there
But are you gone now? Who knows
I met a man who pulled me back to where I am
Now here I stand, now here I stand
On the myth of the man, on the myth of the land
What we were losing, we didn't really understand
Meet me in New York
When the world falls apart
Meet me in Times Square
When there's nothing left there
I've been on the road
For several weeks of shows
I'd like to go back there
But is it gone now? Who knows
I'd like to go back there
But is it gone now? Who knows
