Skyline seems to disappear When you're lonely in New York Sidewalks don't lead anywhere When you're lonely in New York Rush hour traffic not a soul around The echo of your heart beat makes the only sound Broadway is a dead end street When you're lonely in New York Rockefeller Center doesn't rock When you're lonely in New York Central Park just a parking lot When you're lonely in New York The lady with the torch is your one and only friend In the city that never sleeps your nightmare never ends You'd trade Manhattan for a string of beads When you're lonely in New York Sidewalks don't lead anywhere When you're lonely in New York Broadway is a dead end street When you're lonely in New York
