Is with a "beep" or "ring"
Or with a tune that topped the pops,
Or even one from Bing!

Reflecting a half-remembered year
Revealing those who are dear

I want the happiness, once again found
NEW YORK!!!
My city of lost souls
your opulence is now sterile
but my steps are more confident
if only thoughts could follow
