Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Apr. 21, 2015]

Your sudden influence has shaken me
It's taken me completely by surprise
In black and strange, I hope you never change
Although I'm sorry to put that pressure upon you

It's not that I would ever steal your thing
I just think it's good, it's very good
It's beautifully done
I hope that you'll become
The first in a long line of others

New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad

I hope that you might just agree with me
On something that I see importantly
Make sure you can stay in your wild way
In the wintertime of your expression

New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad

The strength in your frailty
The balance in your agony
Your words are electric
And your voice is the wind (is the wind)

New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad you discovered
New York Buddha I'm glad
