Manhattan Lyrics by Small Dad

i would never do that

2016

Let's do this

[Verse 1]
I fell in love with you months and months ago
When you first said hello to me
We lay together in bed
I'd share the thoughts that were in my head
And you would smile and hold me

I cannot count the times I'd go to Dollop with you in mind
Hoping to see you there
But we knew it couldn't last
Now you're a part of my past
When I saw you again you'd cut your hair

[Chorus]
You're my darling girl,
You mean the world to me
I learned so much from your touch and philosophy

[Bridge]
But I cannot lie and say it didn't make me cry nearly every night
It's tempting to romanticize the time spent in your smile when I felt alright

But I think the anguish has passed this friendship can last,
I have faith
I'll try not to fall again, I hope we can be friends
'Cause no one can take your place

[Chorus]
You met my soul back in Chicago
I lost control but I'm trying to get it back now that I'm whole

[Outro]
But I have to say goodbye to the idea of us intertwined,
Goodnight
You'll always have a piece of my heart,
Thank you for a lovely start
We have a complex situation,
But goodnight with love and veneration
