If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first   Go out the way I came in   So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity   Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be      Last day on earth I tell my momma, don?t cry   I'll see my daddy in paradise   Where the blind can see, the mute can talk   The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York      Heaven's in New York   I need a ticket to New York      First thing I'd do is go back in time   Take the Twin Towers, put it back in the skyline   Tell my girl, two wrongs still don?t make a right   Make love for the last time under the candlelight      Pick up my homies at the gentleman club   After that hit the pub, reminisce on the high school days   Man, I sucked as a quarterback remember getting sacked   Man, I almost broke my back      If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first   Go out the way I came in   So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity   Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be      Last day on earth I tell my girl, don't cry   I'm with my daddy in paradise   Where the blind can see, the mute can talk   The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York      Heaven's in New York   I need a ticket to New York   Heaven's in New York   Heaven's in New York      I'd tell the man, give the people a tax break   Kids, stop shootin?, I can't sing it no more ways   I can't take the money with me so I caught a movie   Favorite actress, Angelina Jolie      Favorite singer got to be Marley   Turn up the bass and move to the styling   I can't go without reading my daughter a bedtime story   The heavens is calling      If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first   Go out the way I came in   So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity   Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be      Last day on earth I'd tell my homies, don't cry   I'm with my daddy in paradise   Where the blind can see, the mute can talk   The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York      Heaven's in New York   I need a ticket to New York      Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death   I feel no fear for you are with me, yeah   So tell my loved ones, please don't cry   ?Cause if doves can fly so can I      If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first   Go out the way I came in   So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity   Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be      Last day on earth I'd tell my homies don't frown   I'm with my daddy in paradise   Where the blind can see, the mute can talk   The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York      Heaven?s in New York   I need a ticket to New York   Heaven?s in New York   Heaven?s in New York      Yeah, this one goes out to all my refugees   That leave the land where they from   And come to the land of the free   But don?t forget once you get that dream   Take it back to your country and give ?em a piece of that inspiration      I need a ticket to New York
