Snow falls on the Hudson Souls are lost by the lonely dozen She was here and then she wasn't Out there in the weather Was it a frostbitten wind or a whisper I could swear I felt her
If I knew her face If I knew her name If I knew would you
How long can my heart live With the key kept away from its cage of locked ribs If it's mine why's it in prison Out there in the weather Where it's cold as it is bitter It could die or it could find her
If you knew her face If you knew her name If you knew would you
New York City Would you give her to me I'd be yours forever My old man says If you're good the world gives you The things you ask for
New York was I wrong when I built my dreams on a little island Did I ever really want them Bridges in all directions Three in the morning can't believe I never saw them Maybe I should be going
If she knew my face If she knew my name If she knew would you
New York City Would you give her to me I'd be yours forever You know what I'm after Tell me how many times do I have to ask you I'd be yours forever
