Lyrics[]
Blaine:
Once in your life you find her
Someone that turns your heart around
And next thing you know you're closing down the town
Artie:
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
Wondering to yourself "Hey, what've I found?"
Roderick with Alumni and New Directions Boys (Roderick):
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
(I know it's crazy but it's true)
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
(The best that you can do
The best that you can do is fall in love)
Mason:
Arthur, he does as he pleases
All of his life, he's mastered choice
And, deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy
Spencer:
Living his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a really good time
He's laughing about the way they want him to be
Blaine with Alumni and New Directions Boys (Blaine):
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
(I know it's crazy but it's true)
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
Blaine:
The best that you can do (Spencer with Alumni and New Directions Boys: The best that you can do)
The best that you can do is fall in love
Artie with Alumni and New Directions Boys:
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
Spencer:
I know it's crazy but it's true
Artie with Alumni and New Directions Boys:
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
Artie:
The best that you can do (Blaine: The best that you can do)
The best that you can do (Blaine: Is fall in love)
Roderick with Alumni and New Directions Boys:
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
Artie:
Oh, I know it's crazy but it's true
Roderick with Alumni and New Directions Boys:
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
Artie:
The best that you can do (Spencer: The best that you can do)
Blaine:
The best that you can do
Artie with Alumni and New Directions:
Is fall in love
Trivia[]
- This song was first mentioned by Finn in Britney/Brittany when he says: "How can you get caught between the moon and New York City? They're like 100 miles apart?" It should be noted that Christopher Cross was going to be an artist featured in that episode. It is rumored that Mr. Schue sang this song in that episode. But it was either cut or never filmed.
- Clips from New York, The New Rachel, New New York, and Goodbye are shown as Rachel watches the performance.
