I got so lost in thoughts of you
I missed the F at 2nd Avenue
I came in from the rain
And heard it pull away
I stepped back out into the street
And with the Bowery beneath my feet
I squint to see it as it was
When this neighborhood was yours
It never seemed so distant
All that's clear is: something's missing
New York City is a little less warm tonight
It's a little less cool tonight
And New York City is a little less kind tonight
And a little less rockin' tonight
Debbie's hanging on the phone
Danny's speechless
And hey, hey, Arty's home
And somewhere out beyond the blue
We shine a spotlight star for you
While on the streets below
We wander slow, already lonely
New York City is a little less warm tonight
It's a little less cool tonight
And New York City is a little less kind tonight
And a little less rockin' tonight
I still get lost in thoughts of you
And in those moments, I know what to do:
I put my headphones on
And you are never really gone
Do you remember Hullaballoo?
Upbeat, Shindig and Ed Sullivan too
You know that I remember you
Yes I still fuckin remember
New York City is a little less cold tonight
It's a little less lame tonight
And New York City is a little less cruel tonight
New York City, let's rock tonight
