Paul Simon - New York Is My Home lyrics

The morning came today With rain and sheets of grey The subway rocked me out of bed To take me on my way Where I go, I go in style Each and every mile You know, I'm not alone New York is my home I got a girl up in the Proms She treats me like a king I'll give her anything she wants She is my everything She can be hard as concrete Soft as a summer breeze We can wake the dawn New York is my home New York is calling me It's on the phone It's like the rooftop songs Up from the cobblestones You will never hear me say "The city street's too loud" I hear a gospel hymn In every pa**ing crowd It trails me and it tails me down To central park Even after dark New York is my home New York is calling me And now I find The city never sleeps It's my state of mind The breezes blow And take me where the Hudson never flows The harbour light shines on the piers As all young lovers know I can touch the world As it sails in from everywhere I'm not alone New York is my home New York is calling me And now I find The city never sleeps It's my state of mind The breezes blow And take me where the Hudson never flows The harbour light shines on the piers As all young lovers know I can touch the world As it sails in from everywhere I'm not alone New York is my home I'm not alone New York is my home
