Baby, what are you doing today, what are you doing later?I don't know my way through a maze of gray skyscrapersBut I'm willing to learnIf you want me to I'll stay just where I amBut I promise just to follow when I landAnd you can take my word for that'Cause you are my Manhattan from the skyYou look so neat and tidy when I'm way up highBut I know your streets are lined with a fine mess insideAnd I wanna come down and walk around, you're mineDaises, once upon an old daydream, that's what you gave meOut on the corner of Broadway and 48th Street, on a rainy afternoonWell I could start discovering your worldAnd I would make a damn good city girlThings would start to bloom, I'm sure'Cause you are my Manhattan from the skyYou look so neat and tidy when I'm way up highBut I know your streets are lined with a fine mess insideAnd I wanna come down and walk around, you're mineI know you want me to see don't lie to meSo why you gotta go be so shy to me?I ain't buying the false anxiety, let your fortress fallWhat is it gonna take to get you there?If fear was money you'd be a millionaireOr all alone in a leather swivel chair counting stacks of goldYou are my Manhattan from the skyYou look so neat and tidy when I'm way up highBut I know your streets are lined with a fine mess insideAnd I wanna come down and walk around ohYou are my Manhattan from the skyYou look so neat and tidy when I'm way up highBut I know your streets are lined with a fine mess insideAnd I wanna come down and walk around, you're mineOh oh, oh oh
