You spill your colors over me
You come in silver and gold and green
But you're darker than you seem
I am impatient as a child
I want to see you go crazy wild
But you just sit there and smile

Tell me can you hear me
(Hear me)
Am I speaking clearly?
I am saying I am really on your side
If you don't believe me
(Leave me)
I'll be in the passenger seat
Watching as you drive
I love to watch you drive

'Cause your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
And I don't want to cry anymore
I don't want to die anymore

Those angry little business men
Are thronging the dungeon streets of NYC
They glare at you and me
As you drive by stopping to give them the finger again
You rest your head against the wheel
Say "Let's go anywhere but here"
Traffic lights are mistle toe
So I kiss you hard and say "Let's go!"

Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Oh...

Tell me can you hear me
(Hear me)
Am I speaking clearly?
I am saying I am really on your side
If you don't believe me
(Leave me)
I'll be in the passenger seat
Watching as you drive
It's good to be alive
And I'm alive, I'm alive
You're alive, we're alive

Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Your smile is the Manhattan skyline
Receding behind us
