The morning came today
With rain and sheets of grey
The subway rocked me out of bed
To take me on my wayWhere I go, I go in style
Each and every mile
You know, I'm not alone
New York is my home
I got a girl up in the Bronx
She treats me like a king
I'll give her anything she wants
She is my everythingShe can be hard as concrete
Soft as a summer breeze
We can wake the dawn
New York is my home
New York is calling me
It's on the phone
It's like the rooftop songs
Up from the cobblestonesYou will never hear me say
"The city street's too loud"
I hear a gospel hymn
In every passing crowdIt trails me and it tails me down
To central park
Even after dark
New York is my homeNew York is calling me
And now I find
The city never sleeps
It's my state of mind
The breezes blow
And take me where the Hudson never flows
The harbour light shines on the piers
As all young lovers knowI can touch the world
As it sails in from everywhere
I'm not alone
New York is my homeNew York is calling me
And now I find
The city never sleeps
It's my state of mindThe breezes blow
And take me where the Hudson never flows
The harbour light shines on the piers
As all young lovers knowI can touch the world
As it sails in from everywhere
I'm not alone
New York is my homeI'm not alone
New York is my home
