Nimblix - Drink in N.Y. Lyrics

When I went to New York to have a drink
City lights, they made me think
Of all the dreams I left behind
In this town, I might just find
Stepped into a bar on the Lower East Side
Where the city's heart beats and the locals hide
Bartender asked, what'll it be for you
I said, pour me whiskey neat
I'm here to chase the night, not right the wrongs
When I went to New York to have a drink
City lights, they made me think
Of all the dreams I left behind
In this town, I might just find
Stepped into a bar on the Lower East Side
Where the city's heart beats and the locals hide
Bartender asked, what'll it be for you
I said, pour me whiskey neat
I'm here to chase the night, not right the wrongs
When I went to New York to have a drink
I lost myself, didn't even blink
In the city that never sleeps
I found a place where secrets keep
From the Bowery to the Village streets
In every bar, there's a story that meets
When I went to New York to have a drink
I found a part of me I didn't think
At a rooftop bar in Williamsburg's glow
The Brooklyn Bridge just below
I raised my glass to the skyline high
Where the Empire State scrapes the sky
Jazz notes danced in a Harlem night
In a speakeasy hidden from the light
Whiskey war in my hand
In the city, I made my stand
When I went to New York to have a drink
I lost myself, didn't even blink
In the city that never sleeps
I found a place where secrets keep
From the borough to village streets
In every bar, there's a story that meets
When I went to New York to have a drink
I found a part of me I didn't think
Walking through Central Park at dawn
The night had gone, but I wasn't done
The city whispered my name so clear
That if you don't
When I went to New York to have a drink
I lost myself, didn't even blink
In the city that never sleeps
I found a place where secrets keep
From the borough to village streets
In every bar, there's a story that meets
When I went to New York to have a drink
I found a part of me I didn't think
