| Through the symphony of sirens
|
| Took the poets walk through Central park
|
| Sat a while beneath the sycamore
|
| To watch the world go by
|
| Got a pretzel on the corner
|
| And lost myself inside it all
|
| Didn’t take too long to find someone stranger than myself
|
| I make my own way to the rooftop lounge
|
| To write a set-list for the show
|
| West side of Manhatten
|
| Tonight we’re gonna, we’re gonna blow
|
| In the city that never stops
|
| There’s no time for feeling blue
|
| Everything is possible on Columbus Avenue
|
| Very strangely there is beauty in the chaos and the grind
|
| Here the law besides to low less
|
| Make beautiful of enemies
|
| Between West 59 and 110th Street
|
| The blurry technicolor view
|
| And you can hear the constant beat of the salsa
|
| Through the night
|
| I pour a drink and catch my breath
|
| As I suit up for the show
|
| From the street bars to the stars
|
| Looking for journey in the big yellow taxi
|
| From the high towers to the urban flowers
|
| It’s just the way that Stevie saw it
|
| Columbus Avenue
|
