    Peter Allen wrote this song with Carole Bayer Sager. It didn’t become “Arthur’s Theme” until a few years later when Bayer Sager and Burt Bacharach (who were married) reworked it for the movie Arthur starring Dudley Moore.
    Allen came up with the line, “When you get caught between the moon and New York City” when his plane got stuck in a holding pattern waiting to land at JFK airport in New York.

      sblake,
      I thought it had been written for the movie-thanks! That is one of my favorite lines, but I just thought it was poetic, not actual.
