New York City can be so pretty
From a bird's eye view Because up there
Yeah, that's where I first kissed you
A modern day romance A perfect performance
Acting like two fools Saying silly things
Whisper sweet nothings Like young lovers only do
I was shaking You were breathtaking
Like the Empire State My voice was so far
Not quite Sinatra Singing songs so great
The clock struck one The night still very young
In the city that never sleeps Then a whirlwind blew
When I first kissed you nearly swept me
Swept me off my feet
When I first kissed you That's when I knew
I was in love
Because up there Yeah, that's where
I first kissed you
