Manhattan From The Sky Lyrics - Kate Voegele

Artist: Kate Voegele

Album: A Fine Mess (2009)

Baby,

Whatcha doing today, what are you doing later?

I don’t know my way through a maze of gray skyscrapers

But I’m willing to learn

If you want me to I’ll stay just where I am

But I promise just to follow when I land

And you can take my word for that

You are my Manhattan from the sky

You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,

But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside

And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.

Daises,

Once upon an old daydream, that’s what you gave me

Out on the corner of Broadway and 48th street, On a rainy afternoon

Well I could start discovering your world

And I would make a damn good city girl

Things would start to bloom, I’m sure

You are my Manhattan from the sky

You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,

But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside

And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.

I know you want me to see don’t lie to me

Why you gotta go be so shy to me?

I ain’t buying the false anxiety, let your fortress fall

What is it gonna take to get you there?

If fear was money you’d be a millionaire

Or all alone in a leather swivel chair counting stacks of gold

Oh oh

You are my Manhattan from the sky

You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,

But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside

And I wanna come down and walk around ohhh

You are my Manhattan from the sky

You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,

But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside

And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.

Oh ohh ohh oh
