Lucas Carpenter - Morning Touching Down In New York lyrics

I am an intruder here I've always been with my red socks cap and a pen Jotting down answers A scribe stepping from a carriage car Luxurious faded jeans and a greyhound bus A weekend connoisseur She's always there to greet me As I hit the sidewalk Eyes sparking like a flintlock Aimed and ready to fire 8 am the skyline backdrop reflected in a blur The pavement shimmers The great lakes of 32nd street And there's something about Morning touching down In New York Once again the evening retires And we lay fulfilled Daybreak pours through the windowsill And that's good enough for now At least that's what we tell ourselves In moments just like this Clinging to every kiss Comfort takes a bow Why don't we stop and find the perfect reason why we shouldn't let this deteriorate But I'm one battle too late So I drop my rifle and i retreat Wrapped in white towels she heads for a solo shower as I stare out over the great lakes of 32nd street And there's something about Morning touching down In New York New York Maybe on a return trip or something It'll look a bit different to my eyes No longer in the foreground She'll be blending in with all the other pa**ers by that i will meet I'll meet on the shores of 32nd street Take a pin drop cab right downtown Early Sunday morning Manhatten is stirring Stumbling to its feet She walks away on water As we say goodbye And witness for the last time The great lakes of 32nd street And there's something about Morning touching down In New York And there's something about Morning touching down Touching down In New York New York New York New York
