manhattan streets Lyrics

Do you like to see my face in photographs the way I do yours

And are you waiting by the phone to see if you've got more

Seven days must be too long because I've got a case of the blues now

And the words just never come out of your mouth

Oh don't tell me I'm wrong for what I believe in

I guess I could stop you before you're leaving

Your broadway lights have turned too hot for a-dreaming

And if I'm not dead

There's places I want to go

Go there holding you close

A daydream from long, long ago

Oh and in my head

You're lighting up the Manhattan streets

You're fire blazing in the sheets

Burning with me

Do you want to live together in the suburb

Baby, I don't know

The way you're speaking got me on a tight rope

Oh don't say it's your fault

The baggage is heavy

I'll pull it along

Until you are ready

We'll dance in darkness 'til the light becomes steady

And if I'm not dead

There's places I want to go

Go there holding you close

A daydream from long, long ago

Oh and in my head

You're lighting up the Manhattan streets

You're fire blazing in the sheets

Burning with me

And if it hurts to go I'll stay for the weekend

Call me home I won't stop believing in hope

You're where I go

And if I'm not dead

There's places I want to go

Go there holding you close

A daydream from long, long ago

Oh and in my head

You're lighting up the Manhattan streets

You're fire blazing in the sheets

Burning with me
