Maybe Love Is in NYC - The Pretenders

Standing on a rooftop, overlooking the park

Eyes are glowing in the dark

The smell of horses lingers in the air

It feels like something else is out there

Maybe love is in New York City

Fluorescent streets might lead me to it

I’ve been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong

If it was here, I never knew it

If it was here all along

The clouds are low and cast a misty spell

As if they’ve got a story to tell

A constellation overhead

A cross like an ancient gift something, let me here

Maybe love is in New York City

Fluorescent streets might lead me to it

I’ve been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong

If it was here, I never knew it

If it was here all along

Is it ever too late?

To do what’s never been done

Things change and they’re never quite the same

For anyone

Never understandin'

But now that people told me

This city own its own mess

Like arms still hold me

I just heard traffic rushin' past

Everything goin', goin' too fast

Everything goin', goin' too fast

Maybe love is in New York City

Fluorescent streets might lead me to it

I’ve been to Barcelona, Lima, and Hong Kong

If it was here, I never knew it

If it was here all along
