kate voegele - manhattan from the sky

...........

baby

what are you 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

so why you gotta go be so shy to me?

i ain t buying the false anxiety let your fortress fall

what s 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 good

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
