New York City can be so pretty
From a bird's eye view
Because up there
Yeah, that's where I first kissed you
modern day romance
perfect performance
Acting like two fools
Saying silly things
Whisper sweet nothings
Like young lovers only do
I was shaking
You were breathtaking
Like the Empire State
My voice was so far
Not quite Sinatra
Singing songs so great
The clock [bad word] one
The night still very young
In the city that never sleeps
Then a whirlwind blew
When I first kissed you
nearly swept me
Swept me off my feet
When I first kissed you
That's when I knew
I was in love
Because up there
Yeah, that's where
I first kissed you
