Lyrics

Manhattan

Let’s get out of this town
Go where things happen
Where people build change
On the streets of Manhattan
Where the next generation
is starting the world again
Where we can be the sunrise
On a day that never ends

You talk about settling down
Know where you’re gonna be
Five years from now
You’re going to college at the end of August
I’ll just stay
And write songs about the summer
I hoped would never end

I can’t see past the end of summer
Because what if life gets harder
I don’t wanna be the kid who crawls back home
But I can’t stay in this town
And wait for the day to end
