Karaoké Manhattan Sara Bareilles

You can have Manhattan

I know it's for the best

I'll gather up the avenues and leave them

On your doorstep and I'll tip toe away so you won't have to say

You heard me leave

You can have Manhattan

I know it's what you want

The bustle and the buildings the weather in the fall

And I'll bow out of place to save you some space for somebody new

You can have Manhattan 'cos I can't have you

Ah ah ah

You can have Manhattan the one we used to share

The one where we were laughing

And drunk on just being there hang on to the reverie

Could you do that for me? 'cos I'm just too sad to

You can have Manhattan 'cos I can't have you

And so it goes one foot after the other

'Till black and white begin to color in

And I know that holding us in place

Is simply fear of what's already changed

Ah ah ah

You can have Manhattan

I'll settle for the beach

And sunsets facing westward with sand beneath my feet

I'll wish this away just missing the days when I was one half of two

You can have Manhattan

'Cos I can't have you
