Píseň: Heading Back to New York City

Interpret:
Joan Armatrading
Album:
This Charming Life
Going back to New York city
 To do the things I never did


 I'm heading back to New York city
 To see the things I never saw 


 Things like the ABC No Rio oh oh
 I'm gonna search this town both high and low
 I'm gonna go all the places where New Yorkers go.
 I'm gonna see Staten Island gonna take the boat
 I'm gonna search every place till I reach zero


 Going back to New York city
 You might be by those Asian trees
 I'm heading back to New York city
 Times square and all those broadway babes 


 And if the devil has a playground yeh yeh
 You wanna bet New York is the devil's swing
 Let's shake let's make a deal
 Of all the bright light cities spread around the globe 
 There ain't a skyline better than New York New York


 I'm going back to the place I lost my heart
 I'm going back to the place I lost my heart
 Spend my time trying to find you
 Here in New York 


 Going back to New York city
 To do the things I never did
 I know I'm gonna find you baby yeh yea
 I'm gonna search this town both high and low
 I'm gonna go all the palces where New Yorkers go.
 I'm gonna see Staten Island gonna take the boat
 I'm gonna search every place till I reach zero


 I'm going back to New York city
 Heading back to find you


 I'm going back to New York city
 Heading back to find you
