John Hiatt – When New York Had Her Heart Broke lyrics
On that fiery day
When the towers gave way
NY had her heart broke
NY had her heart broke

Many heroes died
Trying to save someone inside
When NY had her heart broke
NY had her heart broke

And I was there that day
And I don't know what to say
Except NY had her heart broke

In a million years
She couldn't cry more tears
NY had her heart broke
NY had her heart broke

And the daylight fell dark
F16's over Central Park
When NY had her heart broke
We were dazed in the streets
From the blood and dust and heat
When NY had her heart broke
NY had her heart broke

And the world changed that day
Forever some will say
When NY had her heart broke
But like a lover she will rise
Once again to touch the skies
Yeah, NY had her heart broke
NY had her heart broke

Ahh, but she will rise
Again
