Tony Bennett performed this song for the first time in 1962 at the Fairmont Hotel on Nob Hill in San Francisco, and it quickly became his signature song. Some say it refers to leaving his lover, others that he is referring to the city itself. He sang it on Johnny Carson's first broadcast of his "Tonight Show". Tony Bennett has won Grammys with this song.

Name of Song: I Left My Heart in San Fransisco
Relevant Verse: The 2nd verse has the best image:
I left my heart in San Francisco
High on a hill, it calls to me
To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars
The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care
