Well she's a beauty alright and she can light up the night
She's got a scent unlike any that you've ever known
She will pull you in close and she will never let go
And she's got secrets to reveal in her glass and steel, in her neon light
New York, you fooled me once
I ran away but I came back into your coat of arms
New York, you fooled me twice
You pushed me out through Brooklyn to the ocean storms
New York, I've got no shame, so
I'm getting back in the game.
You sent me head over heels right into the wheels
Of a fortune I begged for but I'd never steal
You turned a romantic heart into an I-beam of steel
And now the shame's on you if this heart never heals
New York, you fooled me once
I ran away but I came back into your coat of arms
New York, you fooled me twice
You pushed me out through Brooklyn to the ocean storms
New York, I've got no shame, so
I'm getting back in the game.
You turned me into someone that I've never known
I was a rolling stone but the moss has grown
But I'll never really call you home
And I swear one day I will up and go
New York, you fooled me once
I ran away but I came back into your coat of arms
New York, you fooled me twice
You pushed me out through Brooklyn to the ocean storms
New York, I've got no shame, so
I'm getting back in the game.
