Theme From New York, New York
Who Knows Where the Time Goes
Ye Auld Triangle
At the dark end of the street
that is where we always meet
hiding in shadows where we don’t belong
living in darkness, to right our wrong
You and me
At the dark end of the street
You and me

I know time’s gonna take it’s toll
We have to pay for the love we stole
It’s a sin and we know it’s wrong
But my love keeps coming on strong
Steal away to the dark end of the street

They gonna find us
They gonna find us
Someday they may come along and find us some lonesome day
You and me
At the dark end of the street
You and me

And when the daylight hours roll around
And if by chance we’re both taken out and taken down town
But if we should meet before then, just walk on by
Oh, sweet baby please, don’t you cry
‘Cause tonight we share the same dream
At the dark end of the street
You and me
You and me
You and me
