Dreaming of New York

from Chasing the Dark by Leslie Early

/

about

When I lived in New York, I never had enough money, not many friends and no family. I lived in a shared apartment, in a room with no windows. (At least it wasn't a basement.) But even to this day, when I see a movie set in New York, I miss that place and wonder if I'll ever move back.

lyrics

i still dream of new york
but i’m not sure what i’m dreaming for
cause all the girls have grown up
and found someone to adore
and i can’t keep up
with the kids on the dance floor
so why do i still dream of new york?

i still dream of new york
but i’m not sure what i’m dreaming for
this taxi can’t take me
where i want to go
no magic can make me
the one you wanted most
so why do i still dream of new york?
