You called me last night
On the telephone
And I was glad to hear from you
'Cause I was all alone
You said
"It's snowing
It's snowing
God, I hate this weather"
Now I walk through blizzards
Just to get us back together

We met in the springtime
At a rock and roll show
It was on the Bowery
When it was time to go
We kissed on the subway
In the middle of the night
I held your hand
You held mine
It was the best night of my life

'Cause everyone's your friend
In New York City
And everything looks beautiful
When you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds
And there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is 
You and me

Statue of Liberty
Staten Island ferry
Co-Op City
Cats
And there's Tiffany's
Central Park
Brooklyn Bridge
The Empire State where Dylan lived
Coney Island
And Times Square
Rockefeller Center
Wish I was there

You wrote me a letter
Just the other day
Said "Springtime is coming soon
So why don't you come to stay?"
Packed my stuff
Was on the bus
I can't believe it's true
I'm three days from New York City
And I'm three days from you

'Cause everyone's my friend
In New York City
And everything looks beautiful
When you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds
And there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is 
You and me

'Cause everyone's my friend
In New York City
Everything looks beautiful
When you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds
And there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is 
You and me
