Testo Silver Manhattan Jesse Malin
Opening LinesStanding on the corner
Where I first saw her
In the summer sunset
She came in from the Midwest
Books that sheâs reading
Weâll all dropouts anyway
Tonight sheâs bleeding
Like a Tennessee Williams play
Donât look back silver Manhattan
All your dreams are true
Night goes black
They canât put a price on you
She was on a mission
Another drunk musician
Fix your hair and makeup
Talk about he breakup
Iâm an illusion
But I need it anyway
Donât look back silver Manhattan
Can you still be true?
She wore black
Summer came shining through
Well she had a baby
Moved up to Brewster
Donât look back silver Manhattan
All your dreams are true
Iâll be back and weâll have a drink or two
How do you make it alone
Written in lipstick or stone
How do you make it alone
Innocent, listless and stoned
