Manhattan Transfer - THE NIGHT THAT MONK RETURNED TO HEAVEN lyrics

Though I didn't mention

I prayed for you that day

You left Glasco and your shell

and sailed back to the bay

And though it was predicted

old times always sound so bad

the calendar was the saddest thing

that I ever read

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

Though I wouldn't mention

I still say how do you

know you wonder if the timing's off

how I want you too

though we lost direction

bad times always seem so sweet

you push the rythmn but kept uphill

the heart was made of steel

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

Who knows? I know its our last show

and I hope you know you'll always be

Always be...

One heart it stays racing on

Come on friend

there's poison in your veins

Come on friend

you know I feel the same

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

I hope you know you'll always be the life the party

Who knows? I know its our last show

I hope you know there never was a party at all
