Empire state of mind II

It's so hot and I've been very, very pre-occupied lately. Usually, that's not a good thing for there's no me-time and there's not much creativity left in this dumb brain.

The only thing keeping me sane is the hope that I'll be travelling again.
God knows when now...but I will.

Ooohh New York
Ooohh New York

Grew up in a town
That is famous as
The place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud
There are sirens all around
And the streets are mean
If I can make it here
I can make it anywhere
That's what they say
Seeing my face in lights
Or my name in marquees
Found down on Broadway

Even if it ain’t all it seems
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York
New York
New York

On the avenue
There ain't never a curfew
Ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot
On the corner selling rock
Preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab
Takes me down from Harlem
To the Brooklyn Bridge
Some will sleep tonight
With a hunger for
More than an empty fridge

I'm gonna make it by any means
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These street will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York
New York
New York

One hand in the air for the big city,
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compare
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah

In New York
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York
New York
New York
