Back To Manhattan

Taking the bridge

Back to Manhattan

It's black on the river

And the sun is still setting

Bicycles flying

Down the incline to Brooklyn

They're in the homestretch

But our path is just staring

We went to a movie

Now we're gonna break up

But I haven't told you

Cause the walk's 40 minutes

It's black on the water

But it's still beyond us

The streets just behind us

It's steep and we've started

Taking the bridge

Back to Manhattan

It's black on the river

And the sun is still setting

Bicycles flying

Down the incline to Brooklyn

They're in the homestretch

But our path is just starting

I'm sleeping alone

Back in Manhattan

But that'll be later

If I make it happen

The air's so romantic

But the big graffiti says suck ****

While the night drifts so gently

Through the sadness between us

Taking the bridge

Back to Manhattan

It's black on the river

And the sun is done setting

Bicycles riding

Towards the incline to Brooklyn

Now we're up on the river

In the middle of nothing

Some girls are magic

For some other person

You know that you're worth it

But I'm still not that person

You liked me this morning

By midnight you'll hate me

Everyone's fragile

You're better off angry

Taking the bridge

Back to Manhattan

It's black on the river

And the sun is done setting

Bicycles working

Towards the incline to Brooklyn

Now we're up on the river

And the city is nearer

My life in Brooklyn's behind me

And the days are behind me

When I hold on to something

So I wouldn't have nothing

The days up ahead

Are back in downtown Manhattan

Passing bored kids on skateboards

And Hasids with strollers

Taking the bridge

Back to Manhattan

There's one or two stars now

That's the best we can do here

The buildings are shifting

It looks like a kira

The river's behind us

The streets are below us

Some garbage is flying

Two trains are criss-crossing

It's dark and were talking

But now you're mostly quite

I guess I'm done talking

Here come the joggers

We're in the homestretch

But they're path is just starting

We took the bridge

Back to Manhattan

There were lights on the water

And the evening was over

It wasn't that easy

But it wasn't too hard

We walked on together

We walked off alone

Now you're on the subway

I'm out on a warm night

And most of the people

Look boring in Manhattan

I guess I'll go home now

Past old couples at midnight

They're in the homestretch

But our path is just starting
