It's Raining in New York

Tender as a tear upon your face
Or an orange red and gold November eve
Shining through the streetlamps like a note
Only God would leave

Soothing as a baby's lullaby
The avenue's all bathed and made new
Like when I stop and close my eyes
To think, of you

It's raining in New York
I wish I could be there
To see my friend
To take a walk
To taste the sweetened air
Before today is gone

Why ever would we wait?
For perfect never found
When right now was all around
It's raining in New York

Sad, because I can't be there with you
I mouth your name and suddenly I'm there
Looking out your window at the world
That we can share

Friends we are
Friends we'll always be
The one thing that I always, always knew
That it would be so sweet
If everyone could have a you

It's raining in New York
Let's bundle up tonight
Our weathered love you gave to me
And your love course where mine
We'll see what we can see
Just like we loved to do
Then we'll come back home
And make this night our own
It's raining in New York
