[Verse 1] Walking through the crowd of villages a gloom Lot of [?] Heartbeats under cold Everybody here wanted something more Searching for His Glory that I heard before [Chorus] Oh, Welcome to New York Welcome to New York We've been waiting Oh, Welcome to New York Welcome to New York [Verse 2] It's a new soundtrack I could dance to this beat forevermore The lights are so bright But they never blind me Welcome to New York When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors Took our broken hearts and put them in a drawer Everybody here was someone else here before Then you can get what you want Boys and boys, girls and girls [Chorus 1] Oh, Welcome to New York Welcome to New York We've been waiting Oh, Welcome to New York Welcome to New York [Verse 3] It's a new soundtrack I could dance to this beat forevermore The lights are so bright But they never blind me Welcome to New York Like any great love, it keeps you guessing Like any real love, it's everchanging Like any great love, it keeps you guessing Like any real love, it's everchanging It drives you crazy but you know you wouldn't change a thing It drives you crazy but you know you wouldn't change a thing [Chorus 2] Welcome Welcome to New York Welcome to New York Welcome to New York It's been waiting We've been waiting Welcome to New York Welcome to New York (2x)
