Standing on a rooftop
Overlooking a park
Eyes are glowing
In the dark
The smell of horses lingers in the air
It feels like something else is out there
Maybe love is in New York City
Fluorescent streets might lead me to it
I've been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong
If it was here, I never knew it
If it was here all along
The clouds are low
And cast a misty spell
As if they've got
A story to tell
A constellation overhead
A cross like an ancient gift
Something led me here
Maybe love is in New York City
Fluorescent streets might lead me to it
I've been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong
If it was here, I never knew it
If it was here all along
Is it ever too late?
To do what's never been done
Things change and they're never quite the same
For anyone
Never understandin'
But now that people told me
This city owns its own mess
Like arms still hold me
I just heard traffic rushin' past
Everything goin', goin' too fast
Everything goin', goin' too fast
Maybe love is in New York City
Fluorescent streets might lead me to it
I've been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong
If it was here, I never knew it
If it was here all along
