Are you tuning in (4x)D C Em And I wanted to go Half my life And I feel kind of strange Like I never lived that life And I'm trying hard To control my heart And I always want to know And I always want to go New York are you tuning in New York big city of dreams New York oh what a city New York Are you tuning in (4x) There's now time to unpack yet Let's get straight out on the street And feel no inhibitions This city was built for me And my head is full of questions When did I feel this good In the arms of my lover Burning through the night of New York And its funny how time fly's In the city that never sleeps It's getting after hours And I'm feeling the heat I'm almost dead and buried The day nearly done But I want to keep on going I'm going to kiss the sun in New York And I'm feeling kind of selfish I've been busy on your island Just having my own fun It's an English tradition Find some money make some time Get busy on your island And slowly lose our minds in New York
