Sunday morning it’s 8AM I’m looking through my window to the neighbor’s house He’s making coffee I’m trying to pretend that I don’t really see him
He looks out the window as he starts to dress I wonder what he’s thinking Maybe he’s early or maybe he’s late Or running from last night’s date
chorus: New York City there’s so many windows So many worlds behind each one New York City where the people are fast and the Day and the night blend to one
It’s dark and dreary but I wanna go out I take my umbrella I head uptown to my favorite park It feels like Paris in the rain
I read about the artists whose name is mine Sculpted the face of Gertrude Stein And two lovers are kissing nearby and I’m feeling like a postcard
chorus repeats
Shapes and forms and lines and colors Touch and taste and sensing bravely
chorus repeats
Sunday night about 10PM I’m passing by the window It’s starting to rain again My neighbor just left and his lights went out.
