Lyrics

These lyrics reminded me of the good times-

Grew up in a town,
That is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud
There are sirenes all around
And the streets are mean
If I could make it here
I could make it anywhere
That’s what they say
Seeing my face in lights
Or my name in marquees found down Broadway
Even if it ain’t all it seemsI got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I’m from
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York

Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one track mind like me
You gave my life direction
A game show love connection, we can't deny
I'm so obsessed
My heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna
And I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind
Hey soul sister, ain't that mister mister on the radio, stereo
The way you move ain't fair you know
Hey soul sister, I don't wanna miss a single thing you do tonight
The way you can cut a rug
Watching you is the only drug I need
So gangster, I'm so thugYou're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see I can be myself now finally
In fact there's nothing I can't be I want the world to see you'll be with me

I got freaky, freaky, baby
I was chillin’ with my ladies
I didn’t come to get bougie
I came here to get crazyI
was born to get wiiild
That’s my styyyle
If you didn’t know tha
tWell, baby, now you know now
‘Cause I’m!
Havin’!
A good!
Time!
With you!
I’m tellin’ you
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true

  1. maybe you can record your own rendition of this for us?! aww i love how one song can make you feel so sentimental. It's like when couples say their song is "eg". i feel like this with Australia... and our song is "little lion man".... and in New Zealand our song was "Billionaire" but top of the list is obviously.....

    Do you come from a land down under?
    Where women glow and men plunder?
    Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
    You better run, you better take cover

  2. 'You gave my life direction
    A game show love connection, we can't deny

    This lyric is calling to me for two reasons:
    1) this is one of the songs they always played in the aerobics class we always went to (for free!) in the Ottawa U gym (see, Canada was better for me on so many levels), and
    2) this is how I feel!!

    Reading the lyrics here has made me feel better though, thankyou. I'll be singing them all day!
