Thanksgiving day's been put away
And the final leaves have floated to the ground
But landing on a bed of snow feels warm somehow
We've said goodbye to all the friends and family we soon see again
Go to sleep and wake up to the brand new scene
Then suddenly
Rockefeller's covered in the lights
Families are playing on the ice
From Harlem to the Battery (Ooh-ooh)
Every corner's bustling
Suddenly it's Christmas in New York
Croquettes are warming up their kicks (Bum-bum-ba-la-la-la)
Radio City sold out all of their tickets
The windows on Fifth Avenue
Are dressed up and they're telling you (Ooh)
Suddenly it's Christmas in New York
Find me on Broadway or at the ballet (Ooh)
And I'm five years old again (Ooh)
Making my wish list, but all I wish is (Ooh-ooh)
For another Christmas in New York
Oh, Santaland is ready to debut (Ooh)
When Macy's is so packed, you can't get through (Ah)
The kids are lined up everywhere, spilling out into the square (Ah)
Suddenly it's Christmas in New York
♪
Taxi
Take me straight to Central Park
You've got it, lady
Welcome to the Empire State building
Rockefeller Center
Oh my God
Isn't the city beautiful?
This way, ma'am
♪
Find me on Broadway or at the ballet
And I'm five years old again
Making my wish list, but all I wish is
For another Christmas in New York
Can you hear the church bells ring-a-ling? (Ring, ring, dong, ring)
As the choirs do their caroling (Here we go caroling)
The Saint Patties activity is something everyone should see (Ah, ah)
It even makes the Grinch believe
Central Park looks beautiful in white (Central Park looks beautiful in white)
Cuddled up and meet the blanket, taking in the sides (Ah)
The city is all red and green, wrapped up like a gift for me (Ah)
Finally, it's Christmas in New York
No, there's nothing that
We should all have Christmas in New York
