New York told me to tell you
It's been too long since you called
From that place somewhere west of the Mississippi
Before we started to fall
And I wonder when we will rise
And see that light in your eyes
Once again...
Oh...
New York told me to tell you
New York told me to tell you
The lights on Broadway have gone dark
All of you don't know which way to go
Now that we've lost our spark
And when will we rise
And see that spark once again in your eyes?
Oh...
New York told me to tell you
I wonder if you'll choose to listen
When you've blocked off your ears
I know that it's hard to see the future
Through the clouds of your tears
And I wonder when you'll rise
And wipe the tears from your eyes?
