| Harry got up, dressed all in black |
| Went down to the station, and he never came back |
| They found his clothing scattered somewhere down the track |
| And he won’t be down on Wall Street anymore, now |
| He had a home, love of a girl |
| But men get lost sometimes as years unfurl |
| One day, he crossed some line, and he was too much in this world |
| But I guess it doesn’t matter anymore |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute, things can get pretty strange |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute |
| Lying here in the darkness, I hear the sirens wail |
| Somebody going to emergency, somebody’s going to jail |
| You find somebody to love in this world, you better hang on tooth and nail |
| The wolf is always at the door |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute, things can get a little strange |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute |
| And in these days, darkness falls early |
| And people rush home to the ones they love |
| You’d better take a fool’s advice than take care of your own |
| One day they’re here, next day they’re gone |
| Pulled my coat around my shoulders, took a walk down through the park |
| Leaves were falling around me, groaning city in the gathering dark |
| On some solitary rock, a desperate lover left his mark-- |
| «Baby, I’ve changed, please come back» |
| What the head makes cloudy, the heart makes very clear |
| I know the days were so much brighter in the time when she was here |
| I know that somebody somewhere can make these dark clouds disappear |
| But until that day, I have to believe, I believe, I believe |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute, you can get out of the rain |
| In a New York minute, everything can change |
| In a New York minute |
