I took a trip to Harlem to see where my lonely angel's gone All winter long Now where'd she get those wings from and my god From where'd she get those limelight colored eyes I know, you know this is just a dream But come Friday night, that angel's gonna wake me Then the only thing I'll want in this whole world Is for her to be my New York City Summergirl This must be what true love's like She's flowing up and down and round my simple mind From far beyond the ocean the siren's cry: "Run my chicken run, down Rainbow one" She's blowing kisses in my dreams They settle down upon my shivering sailor heart They tell me just where I need to be, and I'm pretty sure The city's the place to start I know you were never meant to be Walking with me in the cold on the New Street Still the only thing I want in this whole world Is you to be my New York City Summergirl New York, you're my New York Summergirl These days, won't come round no more I'm sure So baby let's fall in love I've taken that long way round To meet you in your prime, darling Just let your hair down low, baby And dance like you'll dance no more ('Cause you're my...) New York, you're my New York Summergirl You know, it's your heart I'm gunning for "The taste of fruit from distant gardens Makes it hard, I can't deny To fall in love one Monday morning With the plain red dirt, dressed up all in white"
