One man standing at the station
One man waiting for a miracle
Three coins tossed into a fountain
One for all, all for a new dream

One life packed into a suitcase
One love fading from a photograph
One soul searching for a soul mate
With a need to know

New York and I'm just passing by
New York in the haze of a sleepless night
New York

Young love running through the cold night
Young blood racing through space and time
Young faith dying in the streetlights
And in your eyes I see the real thing

Sister, time will heal a broken heart
Sister, a broken heart will make you grow
Sister, I know that you will work this out
Now, there's a place to go

New York, and I'm just passing by
New York, in the haze of a sleepless night
New York, New York

Sometimes when you think you're in control, oh, oh
Before you know, reality comes to show
And off you go, New York, New York

(Round and round and round we go
Changing everything we know
Holding on to something we just can't control)

New York, New York
New York, New York

New York, and I'm just passing by
New York, in the haze of a sleepless night
New York, New York

New York in the haze of a sleepless night
In the exit of New York
