[Verse One]
It's always hot on 42nd St
It's 2:00 A.M. and you can feel the summer heat
Oh my, the night is young

[Verse Two]
It's never dark on 42nd St
It's 2:00 A.M. and still the neon shines like sun
Oh my, the night is young

[Verse Three]
Moving in the crowd on 42nd St
Nameless faces pass you one by one by one
Oh my, the night is young

[Chorus]
Hey why can't I find, what I'm looking for?
Hey I know this city's mine, but I still want more
I'm searching through the nighttime more and more
More and more

[Verse Four]
One face takes your breath away
You see those eyes and there's nothing you can say
Oh my, the night is young
[Verse Five]
Hey, girl on 42nd St
You turn my way with a look that's set to stun
Oh, girl, thе night is young

[Verse Six]
Don't pass me by on 42nd St
My heart is saying that it's got a race to run
Oh, girl, thе night is young

[Chorus]
Hey why can't I find what I'm looking for?
Hey I know this city's mine, but I still want more
I'm searching through the nighttime more and more
More and more

[Verse Seven]
I turn around on 42nd St
Still the crowd but you've vanished in the heat
Oh, girl, the night is young

[Verse Eight]
Step underground on 42nd St
I turn around just to see your train go by
Hey, girl, the night is young
[Outro]
Oh Why can't I find what I'm looking for?
And this city's mine, but I still want more
I'm searching through the nighttime more and more
More and more
