Penthouse Serenade (when We're Alone) Lyrics - The Essence Of... - Errol Garner

Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky 

With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by 

A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I 

When we're alone. 

From all of society we'll stay aloof 

And live in propriety there on the roof. 

Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth 

When we're alone. 

We'll see life's mad pattern 

As we view old Manhattan 

Then we can thank our lucky stars 

That we're living as we are. 

In our little penthouse we'll always contrive 

To keep love and romance forever alive 

In view of the Hudson just over the drive, 

When we're alone. 

We can thank our lucky stars 

That we're living as we are. 

In our little penthouse we'll always contrive 

To keep love and romance forever alive 

In view of the Hudson just over the drive, 

When we're alone.
