Manhattan Moon

You say you wanna see the moon

Outside of our living room

Over the Manhattan sky

Like we saw last night

You don't understand where she's gone

When the morning comes

And I promise you she'll be back tonight

We'll find her and we'll say goodnight

So you look for her in the books we read

In the shadows curve you show her to me

When the sun goes down and she's there again

Brighter now, your brand new friend

And for me the skyline's changed

Same old buildings rearranged

The sky's a richer shade of blue

And the moon's my new friend too

I used to travel in a straight line

Now I'm walking on a road that winds

You take my hand and we take our time

We take our time

The moon shines on our half of the sky

And on the half that you left behind

When it's nighttime here, it's morning there

But the moon in the same everywhere

While I'm singing you a lullaby

Someone's waking up on the other side

The moon shining on her too

She'll see it and she'll think of you

She'll think of you

I used to travel in a straight line

Now I'm walking on a road that winds

You take my hand and we take our time

We take our time

You hear music in everything

The rain's a drum

The traffic sings

I listen too and I dance along

We keep on dancing when the music's gone

I used to travel in a straight line

Now I'm walking on a road that winds

You take my hand and we take our time

We take our time

I used to travel in a straight line

Now I'm walking on a road that winds

You take my hand and we take our time

We take our time

We take our time

Oh we take our time
