When I heard the drum, I suddently was in New York
It was night, we were about to go home, three o'clock in New York
Suddently, everything happened
And Manhattan suddently cought fire
New York was a beautiful instrument
That made a loud, nervous kind of music
Somewhere in the city's desolation
I felt a feeling of nervosity
Here was every beutiful thing I knew
The city is music
My heart was beating like a snare drum1 - Like a song in New York
The world is spinning for you and me
Like once in New York
Suddently, everything happened
And Manhattan suddently cought fire
New York was a beautiful instrument
That made a loud, nervous kind of music
Somewhere in the city's desolation
I felt a feeling of nervosity
Here was every beutiful thing I knew
The city is music
My heart was beating like a snare drum - Like a song in New York
The world is spinning for you and me
Like once in New York
(Like a song in New York, in New York)
