Idina Menzel - Ain't No Man Manhattan lyrics

(with Anthony Rapp, James Snyder, Lachanze, Jenn Colella) [Lucas:] So you've got nothing much in common With the artist down in Red Hook Who lost the place he works in So you could build some condos on the water? But he buys coffee from the coffee guy Who's renting from the actor Who's married to the doctor Who is in the E.R. trying to save your daughter Ain't no man Manhattan No island all his own On Roosevelt or Staten Ain't none of us alone Your action's my reaction In ways you won't expect We're all in this together Yeah we all connect Take the environment, or housing Human rights, or education Every issue is connected To each person here, there ain't no separation [Lucas, Liz, Josh, Anne & Kate:] Ain't no "I" an island Anywhere on Earth How much you love your life is What ev'ry life is worth Your answer is my question, My cause is your effect We're all in this together Yeah, we all connect [Josh:] And we all somehow keep moving even so [Josh & Kate:] All of eight-point-two-five million on the go [All:] All changing you in ways you might not know Oh... Ain't no man Manhattan No island all his owwn On Roosevelt or Staten Ain't none of us alone We live in these collisions These accidents arise We somehow find each other In each other's eyes [Lucas:] So a kindergarten teacher [Lucas & Kate:] Helps a certain city planner [Lucas, Kate & Liz:] Meet a surgeon from Nebraska [Lucas, Kate, Liz & Josh:] And his best friend is a doctor [Lucas, David & Company:] And the city keeps evolving And the people keep revolving All of eight-point-two-five million on the run A diff'rent way for ev'ry single one All turning and returning, fast and slow [Liz, Josh, Kate, Anne, Lucas & David:] And we somehow find each other even so
