Lyrics

[00:13.230] Look through the dark I see
[00:16.610] Brown eyes all over me
[00:19.600] That studio on Perry Street
[00:21.880] Hadn't seen a spark like us
[00:25.670] Long were the nights of Fall
[00:29.010] With that Empire touch
[00:30.570] That said it all
[00:32.650] Pictures are in my heart
[00:34.720] To remind me how you look
[00:38.630] Everything that's golden's
[00:41.110] Only shiny til it fades
[00:43.960] But I swear it now
[00:45.580] You're brighter than that town
[00:48.220] To me
[00:51.120] And I'm caught, thinkin' 'bout us
[00:53.630] And I can't stop, wonderin' what if
[00:57.130] And I'll spend forever here dreamin'
[01:00.050] Let me wake up in Manhattan
[01:03.550] Take me to the city of lights
[01:06.580] And shine down on me like that first night
[01:10.190] As I lay me down here to sleep
[01:12.970] I'll pray that I wake up
[01:15.050] Back in bed with you again
[01:19.550] Let me wake up in Manhattan
[01:29.050] I never should've jumped so quick, uh-uh
[01:32.230] But that walking on the pier
[01:34.150] Just did me in
[01:35.670] And I can still taste your kiss
[01:37.830] It lingers on my tongue
[01:40.780] And the night on the strip
[01:42.520] When you grabbed my hand
[01:44.040] Said, oh I've never
[01:45.550] Seen a smile like that, yeah
[01:47.820] We were dancin' on the edge of somethin'
[01:50.850] I could call my home
[01:54.540] Everything that's magic
[01:56.360] Happens faster than the truth
[01:59.550] But this was not an act
[02:01.260] And if I could go back
[02:03.040] I'd show you
[02:06.740] I'm caught, thinkin' 'bout us
[02:09.370] And I can't stop, wonderin' what if
[02:12.800] And I'll spend forever here dreamin'
[02:15.820] Let me wake up in Manhattan
[02:19.200] Take me to the city of lights
[02:22.280] And shine down on me like that first night
[02:25.090] As I lay me down here to sleep
[02:27.930] I'll pray that I wake up
[02:30.640] Back in bed with you again
[02:35.380] Let me wake up in Manhattan
[02:38.570] Regrets fill my mind, oh
[02:41.190] Why did I take that ride home
[02:44.420] Should've known I was leavin' then
[02:47.670] The best thing I would ever miss
[02:50.950] Talk to me, tell me please
[02:53.070] We're OK
[02:54.150] Haning on to every word you say Like crazy
[03:03.650] I'm caught, thinkin' 'bout us
[03:06.630] And I can't stop, wonderin' what if
[03:09.660] And I'll spend forever here dreamin'
[03:12.580] Let me wake up
[03:29.110] I'm caught, thinkin' 'bout us
[03:31.430] And I can't stop, wonderin' what if
[03:35.020] And I'll spend forever here dreamin'
[03:37.960] Let me wake up in Manhattan
[03:41.500] Take me to the city of lights
[03:44.630] And shine down on me like that first night
[03:47.770] As I lay me down here to sleep
[03:50.340] I'll pray that I wake up
[03:52.730] Back in bed with you again
[03:56.820] And I'll pray that I wake up
[03:59.030] Back in your arms again
[04:03.830] Just let me wake up in Manhattan
