the way you spend your nights with her

they say the girls are very pretty

but 22's too young to get hurt

and the snow is gently falling

and there's presents on the floor

but this plane is leaving tomorrow

new york handles hearbreak better than you

better than you, you, you

jealous of the pavement

the way you call the streets your home

no, i won't be negotiated

i hope you feel this in your bones

you swear you're tired and alone

but i hear she's hanging around

you say it's love, then show me

cause new york handles hearbreak better than you

better than you, you, you

and i've been waiting, loving (?)

swear you're gonna leave her

and every christmas time i think of you

yes i do, yes i do

remember we danced, you fumbled your steps

but said you'd never let go

remember we cried, for days at a time

oh baby why won't you come home

cause i've been waiting in new york patient for you

oh, for you, you, you

it tore me up inside

i've been waiting, waiting, waiting

(i've been waiting)

in those dirty hotel rooms

(waiting)

the snow is on the pavements

at rockefeller, too

(i've been waiting, waiting)

won't you swear you'll leave her?

baby i ain't lonely

new york, new york
