Night In Manhattan Lyrics - Hound Heart

'Night in Manhattan' by HoundHeart 

Lyrics by Isaac Friend 

The big apple looks so small 

When the clouds loom overhead 

I'm on the roof, smoking my last cigarette 

About to catch a cab 

About to meet a friend 

Where is everyone going tonight? 

Who's in love? 

Who's dying in these high rises? 

Who's moving slowly between all of these live wires? 

Who's waking up still tired?

The rats in the subway station ain't afraid of nothin' 

Everybody's runnin' 'round racing 

Feels like a hummingbird heart on the ground 

So I made my way to a party across town 

With the silver spoon crowd, in a big blue house 

There were Christmas lights strung end to end 

And a big burst of laughter from a crowd in the kitchen 

And I met a few dudes who thought that they knew 

What they wanted to do when they got out of school 

So I stood there listening, all quiet like 

They talked about life while I minimized mine 

I said— 

Where is everyone going tonight? 

Who's in love? 

Who's dying in these high rises? 

Who's moving slowly between all of these live wires? 

Who's waking up still tired?

So I got drunk like I do 

And I wandered outside 

And I tucked my hands in my Levi's 

Looked a thousand feet down 

It started freaking me out 

So I turned around to leave 

There she stood (Oh my God) 

Five foot seven 

Batting her eyes to command my attention 

She whispered to me and hell, I whispered too 

Then we floated like helium up to her room 

She unzipped her dress and my eyes, all red 

Followed her legs to the edge of the bed 

About an hour went by 

Then we floated back down 

She blew me a kiss, then headed uptown 

I said— 

Where is everyone going tonight? 

Who's in love? 

Who's dying in these high rises? 

Who's moving slowly between all of these live wires? 

Who's waking up still tired? 

Go home 

Go home 

Go home 

Go home
