New York City left me in the fall Said you didn't need not much at all Cooked me dinner as the sun went back to sleep You wore the night so well, Givenchy wouldn't speak Let's talk all through the night No need for introductions I need to know you Just like your hands do I need to know you Like the city knows you Spent the night dancing to Dean Martin and Bing Tripped over your voice and my left feet Holding onto words I swore I'd never mean I want to dance all through the night No need for games, oh baby I need to know you Just like your hands do I need to know you Like the city knows you And in the meantime I'll be waiting for an answer Always left me wanting more Left me wanting more And I've stopped counting the days that you're not here Clock ticks by the seconds last a year Holding onto words I swore I'd never mean But I need To know you Just like your hands do I need to know you Like the city knows you I need to know you
