"Manhattan Island Serenade" lyrics - LEON RUSSELL
Sitting on a highway in a broken van
Thinking of you again
Guess I have to hitchhike to the station
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror looking back at me
Saying you're the only one
Making me feel I could survive
Am so glad to be alive
[Chorus:]
Nowhere to run and not a guitar to play
Messed up inside and it's been raining 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 a highway
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror looking back at me
Saying you're the only one
Making me feel I could survive
Am so glad to be alive
[Chorus:]
Nowhere to run and not a guitar to play
Messed up inside and it's been raining all day
Since you went away
Manhattan Island serenade
[Outro:]
Since you went away
Manhattan Island serenade
