This is just an ode to New York City. It would be a pop-rock song. This would be an upbeat response to LCD Soundsystem’s New York I Love You, But You’re Bringing Me Down.
Lady New York

please give credit if you produce or perform
lady New York
I enter you on the ChinaTown bus
the wifi sucks and works not enough
see you in the distance calling my name
knowing if I could stay
you’d be my ticket to fame
I only get to be your lover for a weekend
don’t get to stay
know you wish it could be some other way
lady New York
love you when I can
lady New York
you’re waiting for me
lady New York
lady New York
lady New York
your streets and bars
are there to inspire me
it’s clear to see
if I could be with you forever
things would never be the same
but it’s never to be
it’s obvious to me
lady New York
our time together is a blast
but it doesn’t last
we always have to part
just as we’re about to start
maybe one day that will change
but I fear such thoughts are in vain
lady New York
love you when I can
lady New York
you’re waiting for me
lady New York
lady New York
lady New York
[bridge]
I know you’ll one day be mine
I know it will be so fine
we’ll grow old together
and I’ll get to raise a family with you
lady New York
lady New York
lady New York
but it’s all a dream
it all has to end
when we will me again
I just don’t know
lady New York I’ll be in you again soon
lady New York
lady New York
lady New York
