Manhattan Skyline, surround me Just like a lady, you're still holding Your light burning for me to see 'Cause I'd do most anything For all those nights that you bring to me All of your love I've been so long in the city The city has been so long inside of me Been so long, it's a pity, I'm so far away But I still do The Big Apple Waltz I'd buy an empire in any state Building the future around you 'Cause where love grows, it's never too late We'll paint a heart on the wall For the whole of the world to see All of my love I've been so long in the city The city has been so long inside of me Been so long, it's a pity, I'm so far away But I still do The Big Apple Waltz Loving you, is my feeling of dejá-vu Loving you, I know it's true, oh yeah We'll paint a heart on the wall For the whole of the world to see All of our love I've been so long in the city The city has been so long inside of me Been so long, it's a pity, I'm so far away But I still do The Big Apple Waltz I've been so long in the city The city has been so long inside of me
