(mm-mmm) Rain against the windowpane
Steam rises off the avenue
again
You walked through the heavy wooden door
Coat still dripping on the parquet floor Our eyes caught across the
counter glow
And the room began to
slow (yeah)
Midnight on Manhattan stones
We don't have to walk alone Amber in a crystal glass
Watching every stranger pass
Falling in love with just the air tonight
Underneath the golden barroom light
Two stools pulled together now
Speaking easy, wonder how The quiet hours
make the truth spill free
Like a half-forgotten melody
Streets outside are slick and black
No reason left for heading back
(oh, midnight in New
York)
Midnight on Manhattan stones
Never felt so far from home Amber in a crystal glass
Let the restless winter pass
We fell in love with just the air tonight
Underneath the golden barroom light
(yeah,
under the light)
Just the rain and you and me
Off the grid on Fifth Avenue
(mmm,
so
slow)
