Punch Brothers, Josh Ritter - New York City lyrics

[Punch Brothers, Josh Ritter - New York City lyrics]

Snow falls on the Hudson
Souls are lost by the lonely dozen
She was here and then she wasn't
Out there in the weather
Was it a frostbitten wind or a whisper?
I could swear I felt her

If I knew her face if I knew her name
If I knew would you?
How long can my heart live
With the key kept away from
It's cage of locked ribs?
If it's mine why's it in prison?
Out there in the weather
Where it's cold as it is bitter
It could die or it could find her

If you knew her face if you knew her name
If you knew would you?

New York City would you give her to me?


I'd be yours forever my old man says
If you're good the world gives you
The things you ask for

New York was I wrong when
I built my dreams on a little island?
Did I ever really want them?
Bridges in all directions
Three in the morning can't believe
I never saw them maybe I should be going

If she knew my face if she knew my name
If she knew would you?

New York City would you give her to me?
I'd be yours forever you know what I'm after
Tell me how many times do I have to ask you?
I'd be yours forever
