Isn't it beautiful, new york in the rain? You're dancing with strangers And their heartbreak runs through your veins Here we are, you and me and the panic of a city Full of cowards and thieves and hopeless romantics Ain't it tragic We are lost in the rain I sense danger in the ghost of your smile Pretending that there's just The world I've seen through your eyes Don't you love new york in the rain? You're siding with strangers And yet they cannot soften your pain Here we are, you and me and the panic of a city Full of cowards and thieves and hopeless romantics And ain't it tragic We are lost in the rain And raindrops of sorrow Turn to blood in our veins
