Manhattan Lyrics by Grayley

2022

Don’t you feel the air tonight?
‘cause with you i feel something more than delight
Nobody else in the world but you
Nobody else id rather be with right now
‘cause all i want is you
And timing out the possibilities
Planning for something i can keep, but oh
It never goes the way we want it to

Dance with me across the room
Place your hands on my waist let’s move
Cause they say we’re way too young to even know what love is
But baby with you i know everything that there is
And maybe you’re just playing me but
At least i can breathe with you, oh you

Manhattan, was our keep
Manhattan, is where i’ll be
If you come back from your leave
I’d be in manhattan for you baby
Manhattan, is where i’ll be

You’ll see me at a local cafe
Drinking something like a latte
And you’d come up to me
And i’d open my eyes wide
And you’d pull me in so damn hard
You’d be absorbing me from the stars
And i’d watch you crash into relief

But maybe this is just how it was suppose to be
Cause at first we’d cross paths and i’d leave
And i’d leave you, but then you would come back to me
And i’d wait here in manhattan from your leave

And i’d see you at the local bar
Cause i’d be playing guitar
And you’d hold me, like i was your favourite rock star
Swaying to Robert Bentley
Got me saying “oh how dare you say that i wasn’t enough for you when you needed me”

Cause baby i was alive
And you know damn well that i tried to keep you but things just got a little messy on my side
Cause i’d be in manhattan the whole damn time
Cause i’d be in manhattan by your side
Cause we fell in love in manhattan that night
And id hold you by my side

Cause i know when you were on your leave you met some other girls that were different than me
And you did somethings that you’d regret
But i’d forgive you, because i’m so completely in-love with you
It’s like stockholm’s syndrome and i’m gone

But i’d wait here in manhattan for you darling
Playing fender guitars i’m running
And you said to me that you’d wait for me
But you know damn well you wouldn’t
No you wouldn’t for me, at all
