The days were long and the night so cold
The pages turn and the tale unfolds
He left me for another lady


She stood so tall and she never said
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


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

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 iiiiiiiii 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 wanna hear it
Your new laughter lines

I don't wanna hear it
The new found friend 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 from mine
Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned your sweet mind


New York, New York
And she took your heart away from mine

Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned your sweet mind


She poisoned your sweet mind
