manhattan streets

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 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 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 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 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 And in my head You’re lighting up the Manhattan streets You’re fire blazing in the sheets Burning with me --- manhattan streets - Aaron Hackett
