[Verse] City lights they shine so bright Concrete dreams in the dead of night Taxi horns they blare and scream In this city of wild extremes [Verse 2] Central Park's a quiet hide But hustle's just on the other side Buildings touch the sky's embrace In every corner a new face [Chorus] New York New York wake up your soul Where every street has a story to be told Skyscrapers and subways run deep In the city that never sleeps [Verse 3] Broadway lights show us the way Actors crowd on the stage to play Pigeons perch on statues grand Romance blooms in a bustling land [Bridge] From Harlem's beats to SoHo's flair Every dream finds a home somewhere Statue of Liberty stands tall and free A beacon for all to see [Chorus] New York New York wake up your soul Where every street has a story to be told Skyscrapers and subways run deep In the city that never sleeps
