I was staring through a telescope at night
  at a large light in the sky
  Its spinning lights reminded me of you
  A star spinning in orbit
  lighting up the sky
  Or maybe it was not a star at all
  
  I was standing by the Hudson River's edge at night
  looking out across the Jersey shore
  At a neon light spelling out some cola's name
  And I thought your name should be dancing
  beamed from satellites
  Larger than any billboard in Times Square
  
  Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  I'm the one who loves you in each and every way
  Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  NYC lovers
  Tell it to your heart
  (Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  tell it to your heart)
  (Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  tell it to your heart)
  
  I'm on the roof, it's 5 a.m.
  I guess I couldn't sleep
  And I see this spinning light that I saw last week
  Maybe I should wake you up
  but by then it might be gone
  You never know what you see when if you look up in the sky
  
  I ran outside down a darkened street
  listening to my boot heels click
  My leather jacket squeaked I needed a cigarette
  When I turned the corner
  my spinning light was in the street
  They were filming a commercial on TV
  
  Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  we're no teenage movie that ends in tragedy
  Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  NYC Lovers
  Tell it to your heart
  tell it to your heart
  Tell it to your heart
  tell it to your heart
  (Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  tell it to your heart)
  (Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  tell it to your heart)
  (Tell it to your heart, please don't be afraid
  tell it to your heart)
