Song Lyrics

Walkin' through a crowd, the village is aglow
Kaleidoscope of loud, heartbeats under coats
Everybody here wanted somethin' more
Searchin' for a sound we hadn't heard before

It's welcome to New York
It's been waitin' for you, welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waitin' for you, welcome to New York

Said, it's a new soundtrack, I could dance to the beat
Beat forevermore, the lights are so bright but they never blind me, me
When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors
Took our broken hearts and put them in a drawer
Everybody here was someone else before
You can want who you want, boys and boys and girls and girls

So welcome to New York
It's been waitin' for you, welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waitin' for you, welcome to New York, welcome to New York

It's a new soundtrack, I could dance to the beat
Beat forevermore, the lights are so bright but they never blind me, me
Like any great love, it keeps you guessing
Like any real love, it's ever-changing
Like any true love, it drives you crazy
But you know you wouldn't change anything, anything, anything

Oh, oh
Oh

Ryan Tedder, Taylor Swift
