New York

Waking up to the sunrise The city never sleeps Walking miles through the streets That tell a thousand tales Is it ever going to be the same I ask myself as the shadows dance on the pavement I had tears at 9-11, memories that never fade But still, we rise and we walk on New York, you never sleep New York, you never stop New York, you never weep New York, you always rise New York, you own the night But I'm still, still wondering what tomorrow will realize Is it ever going to be the same Or will we find a new way In the city of dreams Where nothing as it seems Walking miles After miles we see it all But is it ever going to be the same Or are we just chasing ghosts in a city that's always one step ahead Tears at 9-11, but look at us now Still standing tall, still walking proud The city breathes and so do we In the chaos and calm In every tear and every breath I'm walking on, we walk on And we never stop New York, you never sleep New York, you never stop New York, you never weep New York, you always rise New York, you own the night But I'm still, still wondering what tomorrow will realize Is it ever going to be the same Or will we find a new way In the city of dreams Where nothing as it seems We still walk to keep our memories close In a city that changes, in the day, on the night But is it ever going to be the same The skyline shifts But the heart remains New York, you never sleep New York, you never stop New York, you never weep New York, you always rise New York, you own the night But I'm still, still wondering what tomorrow will realize Is it ever going to be the same Or will we find a new way In the city of dreams Where nothing as it seems New York, you never sleep You never sleep for me You never sleep But tonight let's close our eyes
