[Intro/Hook: Wyclef Jean] If it was my last day on Earth, treat it like my first Go out the way I came in So innocent so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be Last day on Earth I tell my momma don't cry See my daddy in paradise Where the blind can see, the mute can talk The crippled can walk, but for nowwww heaven's in New York Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhh, oh-oh-oh heaven's in New York Oh-oh-oh-oh... I need a ticket, to New York [Wyclef Jean] First thing I'd do is go back in time Take the Twin Towers put it back in the skyline Tell my girl two wrongs still don't make it right Make love for the last time under the candlelight Pick up my homies, hit the gentleman club After that hit a pub, reminisce on the high school days Man I s**ed as a quarterback~! Remember getting sacked man I almost broke my back [Hook] [Wyclef Jean] Heaven's in New York, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhh, oh-oh-oh Heaven's in New York, oh-oh-oh-oh... I tell the man give the people a tax break Kids stop shootin I can't sing in no hallways I can't take the money with me, so I caught a movie Favorite actress, Angelina Jolie Favorite singer got to be Marley Turn up the ba** and move to the stylee I can't go without readin my daughter a bedtime story The heavens is calling [Hook] w/ variations [Wyclef Jean] Even though I walk through the valley of shadow of d**h I fear no evil, for you are with me So tell my loved ones please don't cry Cause if doves can fly... so can I! [Hook] w/ variations [Wyclef Jean] Heaven's in New York, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhh, oh-oh-oh Heaven's in New York, oh-oh-oh-oh... Yeah, this one goes out to all my refugees That leave the land where they from, to come to the land of the free But don't forget once you get that dream To take it back to your country and give them a piece of that inspiration CHURCH! I need a ticket, to New York {*piano and instruments to fade*}
