Wouldn't Have You Any Other Way (NYC)
|
Music by Elton John
|
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
|
|
I remember it like it was yesterday
|
Snow in the park and skaters on the ice
|
Long black cars standing side-by-side
|
Loading up the boys at night
|
|
Turned up our collars to the chill of the wind
|
Caught an innocent smile from a taxi at the lights
|
Not something you'd see on a New York street
|
It's such an uncommon sight
|
|
chorus:
|
But I wouldn't have it any other way
|
This city's got a thing about it, don't try to understand it
|
New York City I'd really like to stay
|
New York City I wouldn't have you
|
I wouldn't have you any other way
|
|
Oh the subway rumbled underneath
|
Italian lights where Joey Gallo died
|
And the man on the door down at 54's
|
Letting only the pretty inside
|
|
I'd wake with a stranger under the covers
|
Late in the day and longing for the night
|
Just like the snowfall there's so many bodies
|
But somehow it feels so right
|
|
[repeat chorus]
|
