Manhattan Island Serenade Lyrics


Sitting on a highway in a broken van
Thinking of you again
Guess I'll have to hitchhike to the station
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror lookin' back at me
Saying you're the only one
Makin' me feel I could survive
And so glad to be alive
**Chorus**
Nowhere to run, and not a guitar to play
Messed up inside and it's been rainin' all day
Since you went away
Manhattan Island serenade
Sitting on a highway in a broken van,
Thinking of you again

Guess I'll have to hitchhike down the highway,
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror lookin' back at me
Saying you're the only one
Makin' me feel I could survive
And so glad to be alive
**Chorus**
Nowhere to run, and not a guitar to play
Messed up inside and it's been rainin' all day
Since you went away
Manhattan Island serenade
Since you went away
Manhattan Island serenade
