Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once in your life you find her
Someone that turns your heart around
And next thing you know
You're closin' down the town
[Verse 2]
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
Wondering to yourself, "Hey, what've I found?"
[Verse 3]
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy
But it's true
[Verse 4]
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love
[Verse 5]
Arthur, he does as he pleases
All of his life, he's master's choice
And deep in his heart
He's just, he's just a boy
[Verse 6]
Living his life one day at a time
He's showin' himself a really good time
He's laughin' about the way
They want him to be
[Verse 7]
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy
But it's true
[Verse 8]
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love
[Verse 9]
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy
But it's true
[Verse 10]
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love
[Verse 11]
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy
But it's true
[Verse 12]
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love
