Songtext von Manhattan

Lap of light Cover the way and keep my side Or steal away from me And keep a tight lip in secret silence Eyes like mine Watching you blow us all to hell But if you took our lives There would be no one to tell your story And how can I make you understand? Lying with you, I held your hand Never look down, I heard you say But it's over, and I just can't believe I'm wrong How can I make you understand? Lying with you, I held your hand Never look down, I heard you say But it's over, and I knew it was all along Wild like time Why can't you believe or just abide? The way I tell you so I stop the day for one simple sideshow Season's smile We were unable to stay warm But in the darkest night There's an ember that's always burning And how can I make you understand? Lying with you, I held your hand Never look down, I heard you say But it's over, and I just can't believe I'm wrong How can I make you understand Lying with you, I held your hand Never look down, I heard you say But it's over, and I knew it was all along
