1, 2, 3
Well, I (1)________________ through the city on the 4th of July
I had a firecracker (2)______________ to blow
Breaking like a robber who was (3)____________ his way
To the cities of Mexico
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
But I've been broken up and busted up since
And love don't play any games with me
Anymore like she did before
The (4)__________ won't wait, so I (5)____________ shake
That thing right out there through the door
Hell, I still love you, New York
Found (6)____________ a picture that (7)__________ fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
Still amazed I didn't lose it on the (8)________ of the place
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
Every day the children (9)________ were (10)______________ (11)__________ tune
Out on the (12)______________ and you (13)__________ hear from inside
Used to take the subway up to (14)______________ and 3rd
I would (15)________ for you and I'd try to hide
And (16)________ won't play any games with you
Anymore if you don't want 'em to
The world won't wait and I watched you shake
But honey, I don't blame you
Hell, I still love you, New York
Hell, I still love you, New York
New York
I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
In a church on the upper west side
Babe, I stood their singing, I was holding your arm
You (17)________ holding my trust like a child
Found a lot of (18)______________ out on (19)____________ B
But I (20)__________ to (21)________ the overhead low
Farewell to the (22)________ and the love of my life
At least we left before we had to go
And love won't (23)________ any games (24)________ you
Anymore if you want 'em to
So we better shake (25)________ old thing out the door
I'll always be thinkin' of you
I'll always love you though New York
I'll (26)____________ love you though New York
I'll always love you though New York
I'll always love you though New York
New York, New York
