Now its always once upon a time,In New York City.

Its a big old battle, Tough old town, its true.

But beginnings are contagious there,Always setting stages there.

They're always turning pages there for you.

And it great the way it all begins, In New York City.



Right away, you're making time, and making friends.

No one cares where you were yesterday

If they pick you out, you're on your way,

To a Once Upon that never ends.



So Oliver, don't be shy

Go out there and go and try.

Believin' that you're the guy,

They're dying to see....

Cause a dream's no crime

Not once upon a time,

Once upon a time in New York City.



If its always once upon a time in New York City,

Why does night fall leave you feeling so alone.

How could any one stay starry-eyed,

When its raining cats and dogs outside.

And the rain has said,
