No one here in New York
Can do me like you do
Can fill my bed with roses
Whilst smashing up the room
I flew out here for diamonds
And all I got was proof
That the only thing worth chasing was you

'Cause when the lights go down on Broadway
And a taxi's hard to find
I'm crying on the Brooklyn Bridge
Well no one seems to mind
I'm sure that you've moved on by now
Well, I shouldn't have called, I know
But no one here in New York
Seems to care
That I'm alone

Strangers on the subway
Make me feel insane
When I smile in their direction
They look the other way
Girls in my hotel room
Say my accent's kind of cute
But no one here in New York is you

'Cause when the lights go down on Broadway
And the music starts to fade
And I'm crying on the Brooklyn Bridge
As strangers look away
I'm sure that you've moved on by now
Well, I shouldn't have called, I know
No one here in New York
Seems to care
That I'm alone
Care that I'm alone

'Cause when the lights go down on Broadway
And a taxi's hard to find
I'm crying on the Brooklyn Bridge
As strangers pass me by
I knew that you'd moved on by now
Well, I shouldn't have called, I know
But no one here in New York
Seems to care
That I'm alone
