Oh on Grand Central Times
And on Penn Station lines I wait (Oh)
New York has been alright
Lit by the flashing lights
Of 42nd and 8th
Get lost in traffic now
While others stop to figure out
Why the silence never seems to come around
Lovers in corner shops
See alleyways and parking lots
I'm still caught up in the harmony of sounds
In the city, oh
In the city, oh
Forgive the morning sky
The wind that hustles by, when I wake
With a coffee and sugar high
But then those sweet goodbyes end long days
Millions of people now
And they can't seem to figure out
Why the silence never seems to come around
Lovers have pillow talks
While some hide under whiskey shots
I'm still caught up in the harmony of sounds
In the city, oh
In the city, oh
Don't get me wrong it's not to say
That sometimes I would rather walk away from every
Call and jazz song that starts to play
And then I miss the halls, the orchestration of it all
Get lost in traffic now
While others stop to figure out
Why the silence never seems to come around
Lovers in corner shops
See alleyways and parking lots
I'm still caught up in the harmony of sounds
In the city, oh
In the city, oh
