Manhattan Skyline - Lyrics by A-Ha


Lyrics
We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
I hear myself say,
"
My boat's leaving now"...so we shake hands and cry

Now I must wave goodbye

Wave goodbye


You know
I don't want to cry again

Don't want to cry again
I don't want to say goodbye

Don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna run away
I don't want to race this pain
I'll never see your face again


Oh but how
How can you say

That I didn't try...

You see things in the depths of my eyes

That my love's run dry

No...


We leave to their goodbyes
I've come to depend on the look in
their eyes

My blood's sweet for pain

The wind and the rain bring back
words of a song
And they say wave goodbye

Wave goodbye


You know
I don't want to fall again
I don't wanna know this pain
I don't want another friend
I don't wanna try again

Don't want to see you hurt

Don't let me see you hurt
I don't wanna cry again
I'll never see your face again


How can you say
That I didn't try

You know I did

You see things
in the depths of my eyes

That my love's run dry(I don't wanna cry again...)
...
So I read to myself
A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons

On the front page
A black and white picture of
Manhattan Skyline
