song that features "new york city"?

I heard this song play at work and the only lyrics i picked up was "new yoorrk cityyy" That was how it sounded in the song.

It sounds like a 70s or 80s song similar to Gerry Rafferty, Glenn Frey or George Harrison perhaps. And is sung by what seems to be a solo male.

I couldn't use shazam because we're not allowed mobile phones on the store floor and the music plays relatively quietly.

If anyone could tell me what it is that would be fantastic.

    Don Henley - New York Minute

    Harry got up, dressed all in black

    Went down to the station

    And he never came back

    They found his clothing

    Scattered somewhere down the track

    And he won't be down on Wall Street

    In the morning

    He had a home

    The love of a girl

    But men get lost sometimes

    As years unfurl

    One day he crossed some line

    And he was too much in this world

    But I guess it doesn't matter anymore

    In a New York minute

    Things can get pretty strange

    In a New York minute

    Everything can change

    In a New York minute

    Lying here in the darkness

    I hear the sirens wail

    Somebody going to emergency

    Somebody's going to jail

    If you find somebody to love in this world

    You better hang on tooth and nail

    The wolf is always at the door

    In a New York minute

    Everything can change

    In a New York minute

    Things can get a little strange

    In a New York minute

    And in these days

    When darkness falls early

    And people rush home

    To the ones they love

    You better take a fool's advice

    And take care of your own

    'Cause one day they're here

    Next day they're gone

    I pulled my coat around my shoulders

    And took a walk down through the park

    The leaves were fallin' around me

    The groaning city in the gathering dark

    On some solitary rock

    A desperate lover left his mark

    'Baby, I've changed, please come back'

    What the head makes cloudy

    The heart makes very clear

    I know the days were so much brighter

    In the time when she was here

    But I know there's somebody somewhere

    Make these dark clouds disappear

    Until that day, I have to believe

    I believe, I believe
