Dazed and confused
But most of all battered and bruised

I came with a dream
Shared by more than a few it seems
Fall asleep now, New York City
I need to rest my eyes
Someday I'll rise, New York City
One day you'll dance for me

Fall back
It's been a lot day but we're still on track

Embrace the fierce reality
Or wither away in sentimentality
Fall asleep now, New York City
I need to rest my eyes
Someday I'll rise, New York City
One day you'll dance for me
