New York Lyrics

You say that you used to be in love

And you say that I used to have it all

It's getting hard for me not to say things that I'll regret in the end (Yeah)

It's in and out and reelin', didn't know if this was real or just pretend (Yeah)

New York, New York I'll forgive you

A lover's sins against me and

I'll try to bear this weight

New York, New York

They'll say that I don't need to be this vein

But I'll say to you, "don't ever change your ways"

Because I need to know which way you're leaning 'cause I don't need to be misled

You know I'm hurt and I'm feelin tired, the actor and the liar forgot their lines (Yeah)

New York, New York I'll forgive you

This city's sins against me and

I'll try to bear this weight

New York, New York

You say to him that this love can make you blind

But I know that I am gonna need to use these eyes to see

From fallin' back in my own traps just covered up by selfish halves

Right from the start

Your eyes will tell me what you're sayin' in your state of disarray

And forget these lies (Yeah)

New York, New York I'll forgive you

For all your sins against me and

I'll try to bear this weight

New York, New York (One more time)

New York, New York I forgive you

For all your sins against me and

I'll try to bear this weight

New York, New York
