What More Do I Need? Lyrics by Judy Kaye

Broadway Romances Manhattan

0

[Verse 1]
Once I hated this city
Now it can't get me down
Slushy, humid and gritty
What a pretty town!
What, thought I, could be duller
More depressing, less gay?
Now my favorite color
Is gray!
[Chorus]
A wall of rain as it turns to sleet
The lack of sun on a one-way street
I love the grime all the time
And what more do I need?
My window pane has a lovely view
An inch of sky and a fly or two
Why, I can see half a tree
And what more do I need?
The dusk is thick and it's galling
It simply can't be excused
In winter even the falling snow looks used
My window pane may not give much light
But I see you so the view is bright
If I can love you I'll pay the dirt no heed!
With your love, what more do I need?
[Verse 2]
Someonе shouting for quiet
Someone's starting a brawl
Down thе block there's a riot
And I'll buy it all
Listen, now I'm ecstatic
Hold me close and be still
Hear the lovely pneumatic
Drill!
[Chorus]
A subway train thunders through the Bronx
A taxi horn on the corner honks
But I adore every roar
And what more do I need?
I hear a crane making street repairs
A two-ton child running wild upstairs
Steam pipes bang, sirens clang
And what more do I need?
The neighbors yell in the summer
The landlord yells in the fall
So loud I can't hear the plumber pound the wall
An aeroplane roars across the bay
But I can hear you as clear as day
You said you loved me above the sound and speed
With your love, what more do I need?
