Lyrics
Take Me Home Tonight
New York City what a town
There's people all around
And no one knows I'm looking for a friend
I look in the people's eyes
I notice their surprise
It looks like I'll be lonesome to the end
I think I'll go down to the subway
Though it's dangerous there at night
I hope someone will talk to me
And take me home tonight
I've Got some friends there living
Can.t find them for the crowd
I guess that I'll just write to them some day
I called the operator,
Told her my friends name
She said that he's not listed just the same...
I think I'll go down to the subway,
Though it's dangerous there at night
I hope some one will talk to me
And take me home tonight
