Manhattan from the Sky

Baby what are you doing today, what are you doing later
I don’t know my way through a maze of gray skyscrapers but I’m willing to learn
If you want me to I’ll stay just where I am but I promise just to follow when I land
And you can take my word for that

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind

Daises, once upon an old daydream that’s what you gave me
Out on the corner of Broadway and 48th street on a rainy afternoon
Well I could start discovering your world and I would make a damn good city girl
Things would start to bloom I’m sure

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind

I know you want me to see, don’t lie to me, why you gotta go be so shy to me
I ain’t buying the false anxiety, let your fortress fall
What’s it gonna take to get you there, if fear was money you’d be a millionaire
All alone in a leather swivel chair counting stacks of gold

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind
