New York Minute

I always knew you loved out east much more than you'd ever love me
So I'm glad we never tried
Different coasts and opposite directions
Not like I fantasized

So, go, go through this open door
You dream of leaving, for the life in New York
Meet a pretty girl, fall in love, give her everything, I know she'll be enough
If you ever get sick of the coffee runs and the hot, foreign accents and the arrogant suits
I'd find you in a New York minute

Well I've heard the coast is beautiful so I guess that means I've gotta go someday
And see it for myself
Maybe sing a song or two, just listen, if you've got a few to spare
Because you carried my heart here

So, go, go through this open door
You dream of leaving, for the life in New York
Meet a pretty girl, fall in love, give her everything, I know she'll be enough
If you ever get sick of the coffee runs and the hot, foreign accents and the arrogant suits
I'd find you

And we'd take a cheesy carriage ride through Central Park
Awe at the lights of Times Square in the dark
And see the bronze lady from across the water
We'll do all the classic touristy things that you see in black and white movies
When the credits roll during the kissing scene

But I know in the end it's just my fantasy

So, go, go through this open door
You dream of leaving, for the life in New York
Meet a pretty girl, fall in love, give her everything, I know she'll be enough
If you ever get sick of the coffee runs and the hot, foreign accents and the arrogant suits
I'd find you in a New York minute

And if you'd love me, I'd love you in a New York minute
