Never Felt Alone in New York City (Acoustic)

lyrics

I never felt alone in New York City
I never felt alive till I met you
I never felt alone in New York City
Well some how New York always knew

I sit down on that subway Seat
And a man lies next to me
I'm dreaming about that Princess Grace
She's got a smile I can't escape
He says boy get out what's in that case
And fill the air with something sweet
I said I only have this broken heart
And he said that's all right with me

So I never felt alone in New York City
I never felt alive till I met you
I never felt alone in New York City
Some how New York always knew

So I carry on singing my sad song
Beneath the City Streets
and if you listen very close to dawn
You can hear the city speak
And though it might just sound like noise to some
It's beautiful to me
As it accompanies the rising sun
Like an urban symphony

So I never felt alone in New York
I never felt alone in New York
I never felt alone in New York

They say the city never sleeps
So grab a dream then hit the streets
You may be out there on your own
But you'll never be alone in New York

No you'll never be alone
No you'll never be alone

So I jump off at 34th street
And drag my feet because I know
That the only time I start feeling alone
Is when I catch that train back home
Home

But I never felt alone in New York City
I never felt alive till I met you
I never felt alone in New York City (Never felt alone)
Some how New York always knew
