U2 lyrics : "New York"

In New York freedom looks like
Too many choices
In New York I found a friend

To drown out the other voices

Voices on a cell phone

Voices from home
Voices through the hard sell
Voices down a stairwell

In New York
Just got a place in New York


In New York summers get hot
Well into the hundreds
You can walk around the block

Without a change of clothing

Hot as a hair dryer in your face

Hot as handbag and a can of mace
New York
I just got a place in New York


New York New York


In New York you can forget
Forget how to sit still
Tell yourself you will stay in

But it's down to Alphaville(?)

New York

New York, New York

New York, New York

New York

The Irish been coming here for years

Feel like they own the place
They got the airport, city hall
The asphalt dance floor (??)

They even got the police

Irish, Italians, Jews and Hispanics

Religious nuts, political fanatics in the stew
Happily not like me and you
That's where I lost you


New York
New York, New York

New York
New York, New York


New York
New York


In New York I lost it all
To you and your vices
Still I'm staying on to figure out

Midlife crisis

I hit an iceberg in my life

You know I'm still afloat
You lose your balance, lose your wife
In the queue for the lifeboat


You better put the women and children first
But you've got an unquenchable thirst for New York


New York
New York

New York, New York

In the stillness of the evening

When the sun has had its day
I heard your voice whispering
Come away now


New, New York
New...
New York


New York
