New York (feat. Ghostface Killah)

The days were long

and the nights so cold

the pages turned and the tale unfolds

He'd left me for another lady.

She stood so tall and she never slept

There was not one moment he could regret

He'd left me for another lady

He took my hand one day

and told me he was leaving,

me disbelieving and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go

Her name was New York,

New York,

and she took his heart away oh my

Her name was New York,

New York,

she had poisoned his sweet mind

mmm.

The wolves they howled for my lost soul

I fell down a deep black hole,

He'd left me for another lady

she poured the drinks and she poured the power

A diamond girl who could talk for hours

He'd left me for another lady

Now I am on my own,

he told me he was leaving,

and I was pleading

and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go

Her name was New York,

New York,

and she took his heart away oh my,

Her name was New York,

New York,

she had poisoned his sweet mind

please don't make me go to

New York,

New York,

and she took your heart away oh my,

her name was New York,

New York,

She poisoned your sweet mind.

she poisoned your sweet mind.
