lyrics

I know a man who left his job in NYC,
He says every day since has not been the same,
He moved away to Virginia Beach,
He moved from the city where liberty knows your name,
He said some come for the thrill, some stay to find their dream,
But they’re dreaming in a city that doesn’t sleep

They want to live under the lights of New York City,
Where all of the building are reaching the skies,
They want to live for the stars and the stripes of New York City,
On the streets where liberty knows your name

The lights always right down in NYC,
It glistens by day and it roars at night,
And there’s been days when the tiger has lost its fight,
But if you look to the stars you’ll see the tigers still got its stripes

And they want to live under the lights of New York City,
Where all of the building are reaching the skies,
They want to live for the stars and the stripes of New York City,
On the streets where liberty knows your name

He says it never loses it’s touch and once it’s got a hold it’s never letting going cos tonight,
It’s got that feeling.
And of all the cities in all the states there’s only one that can equate to this,
It’s feeling good.

They want to live under the lights of New York City,
Where all of the building are reaching the skies,
They want to live for the stars and the stripes of New York City,
On the streets where liberty knows your name

They want to live under the lights of New York City,
Where all of the building are reaching the skies,
They want to live for the stars and the stripes of New York City,
On the streets where liberty knows your name
They wanna be living in the city where liberty knows your name
