Manhattan |
| Thousand feet above the ground |
| Lookin' o’er a postcard town |
| As one-by-one lights go out in Brooklyn |
| Looks like the stars have all fell down |
| Spread themselves across the ground |
| Like a farmer sowin' seed in the spring-time |
| Taxi rides just after dark |
| Those eyes could’a lit up Central Park |
| Then kiss like you see in the movies |
| Wore my heart around your neck |
| And I’m sure that I would not forget |
| This city, this moment, this girl |
| Manhattan, manhattan |
| Oh where have you been all my life? |
| Out of town kids with nothin' to do |
| Fake ID’s and cowboy boots |
| And a friend to keep us loaded for the weekend |
| We’ll catch the A Train to Chamber Street |
| Jenny’s got a girl that she wants me to meet |
| She’ll get me high, she’ll get me drunk, she’ll get me off |
| Grand Central is still alive |
| As we rush to jump the 10:05 |
| And make sure that we get back to Brooklyn |
| And tomorrow mornin' we’ll be on track |
| To the town that tries to hold us back |
| But you haven’t seen the last of us |
| Manhattan |
| Manhattan |
| Oh where have you been? |
| Where have you been? |
| Manhattan |
| Manhattan |
| Oh where have you been? |
| Oh where have you been? |
| Manhattan |
