New York Minute - Dion

Got up another Monday

Got on another subway

Get through another workday

Hey, was my ambition

Five stops on down to Broadway

You stepped right through the doorway

I saw you coming my way

Hey, a brand new mission

You took the breath, girl, right out of me

And you were all now that I could see

And then my mind just went absentee

Oh, girl

For at least a New York minute

I think my brain was broken

I dropped my subway token

Though not a word was spoken

When I saw you smile, girl

I had never seen eyes

Like your lovely green eyes

Innocent and so streetwise

Hey, you got that style

You took the breath, girl, right out of me

And you were all now that I could see

And then my mind just went absentee

Oh, girl

For at least a New York minute

My heart did a flipflop

When you stood at my stop

It's all now just a backdrop

To, girl, our love story

Stepped up into sunlight

Made a date for that night

Now we're living all right

Wow, that New York glory, baby
