I took a trip to Harlem to see where my lonely angel's gone, all winter long Now where'd she get those wings from and my god from where'd she get those limelight colored eyes.
I know, you know this is just a dream, but come friday night that angel's gonna wake me, and then the only thing I'll want in this whole world, is for her to be my New York City Summergirl
This must be what true love's like, she's flowing up and down and round my simple mind, from far beyond the ocean the siren's cry: "Run, my chicken run, down rainbow one"
She's blowing kisses in my dreams, they settle down upon my shivering sailor heart, they tell me just where I need to be, and now I'm pretty sure the city's the place to start.
I know you were never meant to be walking with me in the cold on the New atreet, still the only thing I want in this whole world, is you to be ny New York City Summergirl
New York, you're my New York Summergirl These days, won't come round no more I'm sure, so baby let's fall in love
I've taken that long way round, to meet you in your prime, darling, just let your hair down low, baby, and dance like you'll dance no more
New York, you're my New York Summergirl You know, it's your heart I'm gunning for
"The taste of fruit from distant gardens makes it hard, I can't deny, to fall in love on monday morning, with the plain red dirt, dressed up all in white"
