Bryan Lanning - NYC lyrics
[Bryan Lanning - NYC lyrics]
We sold everything and loaded up your car
Boxes and bags of clothes and even your dog
We were headed east
Where the buildings tower tall you and I
We had nothing but we had it all
And that's when I knew
That's when I saw it
Oh, that look in your eyes
I couldn't have bought it
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
The world it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
You were looking at me, I was looking at you
That's when I knew
And we were halfway to New York City
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
We barely made it
With scrapes and empty pockets
The view was grand and the subway was hot
Unforgiving roads and shattered hope
You and I, we had it all and then it was gone
And that's when I knew
That's when I saw it
Oh, that look in your eyes
I couldn't have bought it
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
The world it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
You were looking at me, I was looking at you
That's when I knew
And we were halfway to New York City
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
Fighting through traffic
Fighting to find our way back home
Clutch hands, feelings
Feelings like we've never known
Skylines and sunsets were nothing
Compared to your silhouette
Big dreams and big hearts
They had their chance, they had their start
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
(Nothing but a dream)
The world, it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
(We were so naive)
Oh oh, you were looking at me
I was looking at you
That's when I knew (That's when I knew)
And when we were halfway to New York City
(We were halfway to New York City)
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
Boxes and bags of clothes and even your dog
We were headed east
Where the buildings tower tall you and I
We had nothing but we had it all
And that's when I knew
That's when I saw it
Oh, that look in your eyes
I couldn't have bought it
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
The world it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
You were looking at me, I was looking at you
That's when I knew
And we were halfway to New York City
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
We barely made it
With scrapes and empty pockets
The view was grand and the subway was hot
Unforgiving roads and shattered hope
You and I, we had it all and then it was gone
And that's when I knew
That's when I saw it
Oh, that look in your eyes
I couldn't have bought it
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
The world it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
You were looking at me, I was looking at you
That's when I knew
And we were halfway to New York City
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
Fighting through traffic
Fighting to find our way back home
Clutch hands, feelings
Feelings like we've never known
Skylines and sunsets were nothing
Compared to your silhouette
Big dreams and big hearts
They had their chance, they had their start
We were halfway to New York City
Holding onto nothing but a dream
(Nothing but a dream)
The world, it seemed so easy
We were so young and naive
(We were so naive)
Oh oh, you were looking at me
I was looking at you
That's when I knew (That's when I knew)
And when we were halfway to New York City
(We were halfway to New York City)
Oh, halfway to New York City oh yeah
