Manhatten Skyline Lyrics by A Ha

Manhatten Skyline

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 good-bye
wave good-bye
wave good-bye

Wave good-bye
wave good-bye
wave good-bye.

You know: I don't want to cry again
I don't want to cry again

I don't want to say good-bye
I don't want to cry again

I don't want to 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!

I leave to their good-byes

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 ot a song.
And they say: Wave good-bye
wave good-bye
wave good-bye

Wave good-bye
wave good-bye
wove good-bye.
You know: I don't want to fall again

I don't want to know this pain


I don't want another friend
I don't want to cry again

I don't want to see you hurt
don't let me see you hurt

I don't want to 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 want to cry again!

So I read to myself

a chance of a lifetime to see new horizons.
On the front page a block and white picture
of Manhatton skyline!
