BACK TO NEW YORK
What a sad face she had
When we met again on the boulevard
I said ‘life hasn’t treated me bad
So now you’re back, but yet so far’
I know I took my time,
Disappeared in an ocean of faces
But someone brought me back
From all those places
I am the same girl you knew
Under the Statue of Alice in Central Park
And when the Belvedere Castle turned blue
We caught the spirit of John by the Turtle Pond
At the gate we heard
The sound of the Silver Bell
Can you see me standing here
Alive and well
It’s time for us to take a chance
And fly away together
I never did forget your face
And never, say never
Many people met along the way
Some just vanished, but some did stay
All this time that passed that little girl of mine
Will be a woman soon, thanks she’s doing fine
I know I took my time
Disappeared in an ocean of faces
But someone brought me back
From all those places
It’s time for us to take a chance
And fly away together
I never did forget your face
And never, say never
I came all this way
All this way for you
I came all this way
All this way for yo
