This is New York, yo 
 (It's getting dark) 
    Night falls on the city 
 Finds me all alone 
 Makes me wonder 
 Should I just go on home   
 And I walk up the stairs 
 To see if you're sill there 
 Would you mind if 
 I found you alone?   
 Then a cold wind came callin' 
 Strange how it knew it'd bother me 
 See the night would fade 
 But the pain's gonna stay 
 Makes me wonder 
 Have you ever made love to me?   
 I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
 Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 Lightnin' only blinds my eyes   
 Ain't it sad 
 When the only love I ever had 
 Just slips away 
 Right through my fingers   
 Ain't it a shame when I think of your name 
 The only memory I have is it   
 I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
 Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky   
 I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
 Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes   
 Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes   
 Can't stop it, blinds my eyes
