Good Night, New York - Live Version
My mother came to America Sailed through the harbor of hopes and of dreams Back in the Thirties With the streets paved in gold And the sky laced with moonbeams
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons Here in the free world, we're the lucky ones
All of my yearning All of my hunger Maybe I'm learning Sometimes I wonder Good night, New York
Before the Kennedys Before the Beatles Before the Vietnam War Back to a time when anything was possible Having less meant knowing more
Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Here in the free world, for that second chance
All of my yearning All of my hunger Maybe I'm learning Sometimes I wonder Good night, New York
My mother came to America Sailed through the harbor of hopes and of dreams And here in the future I hope I've not failed her Cause nothing's the way that it seems
All of my yearning All of my hunger Maybe I'm learning Sometimes I wonder Good night, New York
