"When New York Had Her Heart Broke" lyrics - JOHN HIATT

JOHN HIATT
"When New York Had Her Heart Broke"

On that fiery day, when the towers gave way
New York had her heart broke, New York had her heart broke
Many heroes died, trying to save someone inside
When New York had her heart broke, New York had her heart broke

And I was there that day, and I don't know what to say
Except New York had her heart broke, New York had her heart broke

And the daylight felt dark, F-16's over Central Park
When New York had her heart broke
We were dazed in the streets, from the blood and dust and heat
When New York had her heart broke, New York had her heart broke

And the world changed that day, forever some will say
When New York had her heart broke
In a million years, she couldn't cry more tears
New York had her heart broke, New York had her heart broke

Ah, but she will rise again.
