I say goodbye to all my sorrows And by tomorrow I'll be on my way I guess the Lord must be in New York City I'm so tired of getting nowhere Seeing my prayers going unanswered I guess the Lord must be in New York City Well here I am, Lord Knocking on your back door Ain't it wonderful to be Where I've always wanted to be For the first time I'll be free in New York City I say goodbye to all my sorrows And by tomorrow I'll be on my way I guess the Lord must in New York City I'm so tired of getting nowhere Seeing my prayers going unanswered I guess the Lord must be in New York City Well here I am, Lord Knocking on your back door Ain't it wonderful to be Where I've always wanted to be For the first time I'll be free in New York City

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 Instrumental We met in the springtime at a rock-n-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 Instrumental Statue of Liberty, Staten Island Ferry, Co-op City, "Cats" and Tiffany's Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge The Empire State where Dylan lived Coney Island and Times Square Rockefeller Center Wish I was there Instrumental You wrote me a letter just the other day Said "Springtime is coming soon, so why don't you come to stay?" I packed my stuff, got 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 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 Instrumental

To know what it's like to love somebody the way I love you To know what it's like to love somebody the way I love you To know how it feels to kill yourself with bad habits To know what you want, know you'll never truly have it New York City, please go easy on me tonight New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine 'Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another New York City, please go easy on me tonight New York City, please go easy on me tonight When I went away, saw your face in my rearview I know that look on your face, that I had lost you New York City, please go easy on me tonight New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine 'Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another New York City, please go easy on me tonight You promised, I promised I never knew I could be this selfish Nights downtown, it's a new town But I keep thinking I see your face in the crowd But you're not here and you won't be 'Cause you loved me enough to let go of me New York City, please go easy on me tonight New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine 'Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another New York City, please go easy on me tonight

En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann En dag vi alla förstår En dag, när stillheten rår En dag jag finner din hand När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann Vi bär på en längtan och vandrar omkring Vandrar men utan att se Vad som än händer, jag kommer till dig Stannar fast timmen är sen Stannar fast timmen är sen Åh... En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann Åh... Allt det vi söker, det finns här intill Allt som vi hoppas ska ske Åh... Vad som än händer, jag kommer till dig Stannar fast timmen är sen Åh... Stannar fast timmen är sen Åh... En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här Åh... En dag När vägarna möts förstår vi varann En dag vi alla förstår Åh... En dag, när stillheten rår En dag jag finner din hand När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann (En dag när vindarna bär) En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann

Have you ever watched a moonbeam As it slid across your windowpane Or struggled with a bit of rain Or danced about the weathervane Or sat along a moving train And wonder where the train has been? Or on a fence with bits of crap Around its bottom Blown there by a wind beam Who searches for the moonbeam Who was last seen Looking at the tracks Of the careless wind beam Moving to the tracks Of the tireless freight train And lighting up the sides Of the weathervane And the bits of rain And the windowpane And the eyes of those Who think they saw what happened Have you ever watched a moonbeam As it slid across your windowpane Or struggled with a bit of rain Or danced about the weathervane Or sat along a moving train And wonder where the train has been? Looking at the track Of the careless wind beam And moving to the tracks Of the tireless freight train And lighting up the sides Of the weathervane And the bits of rain And the windowpane And the eyes of those Who think they saw what happened

Long ago, far away Life was clear, close your eyes Remember is a place from long ago Remember, filled with everything you know Remember, when you're sad and feeling down Remember, turn around Remember life is just a memory Remember close your eyes and you can see Remember, think of all that life can be Remember Dream, love is only in a dream Remember Remember life is never as it seems Dream Dream, love is only in a dream Remember Remember life is never as it seems Dream Long ago, far away Life was clear, close your eyes
