Coles Whalen - Manhattan lyrics

Manhattan ringtone on your mobile phone

Lisa listens closely to the timbre of my voice As it rises and it falls Patchy Christmas sentiment bits and pieces all she gets But at least I called at all She is sitting in a crowded subway car I am standing in a parking lot behind some bar Look outside all Manhattan is dancing for you Keep your eyes on those lights Isn't it like Manhattan is singing just for you That city will be where I'm not tonight Christmas season whirlwinds through that city's snowy streets She sees this every year A different crowd each night I'll sing and I'll play the Yule Tide Light For a few bucks and a beer On a tiny tree she keeps in her apartment corner Hangs an ornament I sent from the Colorado border Look outside all Manhattan is dancing for you Keep your eyes on those lights Isn't it like Manhattan is singing just for you That city will be where I'm not tonight She is sitting in a crowded subway car I am standing in a parking lot behind some bar Look outside all Manhattan is dancing for you Keep your eyes on those lights Isn't it like Manhattan is singing just for you That city will be where I'm not tonight
