My Empire State Dream...

...ever since i was little i have been fascinated by New York...

...you might know the other day me and me friend tried to re-write the lyrics to Alicia's solo version of 'EmpireStateofMind' ... it was not very successful and we planned to try again but since she is currently in france skiing *booo!* i wrote my own version of this amazing song... this song is now one of my favourite songs it really inspires me... here is part of my version-

'...

When Alicia sang about the jungle with Jay

Made me think of my dream

Ill achieve one day

Empire state

Greatest city in the world

Inspired me dearly

I wanna be heard

Reference to Sinatra making it big

In new York

Playing my very first gig

I knew I could make it

Was a story of when not how

Pocket full of dreams

Thread bursting at the seems

I would make it

By any means

‘Start spreading the news

Im leaving today

Im gonna be a part of it

New York New York

If I can make it here then I can

Make it

anywhere’

Ohhhhh New York

Makes me feel good

From the Manhattan beauty down to the hood

Brooklyn bridge

Image of glory and might

Statue of liberty

Struggle and fight

Ohhhhh New York

Freedom it screams

Lights that blind you

World behind you

I wish I was from New York

That concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There’s nothing you cant do

Now your in New York

People all around me

Sightseeing

Yankees loving the game

Taxi cab yellow like the pictures

Broadway and marquees

Just like Alicia sang

Dreams can come true

I have saw it with my own eyes

I am living proof

Will I sit in new York

The city of dreams

Captured me when I was five

Dream came true go out and achieve yours

One hand in the big city street lights

Big dreams all looking pretty

No place in the world that could compare

I made it to

New York.

Ohhhhhhhhh New York'

i know i havent been to New York yet so some of the lyrics are not too sure...but one day i will move there x
