I'm on the first plane to New York
We could do a real time walk that walk
I'm so tired of that talk, talk, talk
I just wanna get to you
Get me on a train to the big bad city
Boy, I gotta see your face, so pretty
I bet you can't wait to slow dance with me
I just wanna get to you

Things heat up when the lights go down
Feels so good when we're in this town
Dreams come true when the distance fades away

New York City
Everybody looks so pretty
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings
I just love the feels with you, with you, with you, with
New York City
When I'm with you, it looks so pretty
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings
I just love the feels with you
I just wanna get, I just wanna get, get, yeah
I just wanna get to you

Karaoke in Tokyo, shakin' that samba in Rio
Tippin' that pulse rate, oh, oh, oh
Makin' those dreams come true
Every place got a piece of my heart
Bangkok baby, "Sawasdee ka"
Paris make a girl go, "Ooh, la la"
I just wanna get to you

Things heat up when the lights go down
Feels so good when we're in this town
Dreams come true when the distance fades away
(Away, away, away)

New York City
Everybody looks so pretty
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings
I just love the feels with you, with you, with you, with
New York City
When I'm with you, it looks so pretty
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings
I just love the feels with you
I just wanna get, I just wanna get, get, yeah
I just wanna get to you

Hold my breath, I'm shakin' now
Baby, I feel you all around
So high up, there's no comin' down, down, down (ooh)
Feel your body close to me
Both know where we wanna be
It's crazy every time we go out in

New York City (hey)
Everybody looks so pretty (yeah)
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings (yeah)
I just love the feels with you, with you, with you, with
New York City
When I'm with you, it looks so pretty
Ooh, it's givin' me those feelings
I just love the feels with you
I just wanna get, I just wanna get, get, yeah
I just wanna get to you

New York City
I feel it all around, this love is fever now
I feel it all around, this love is fever now
