Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On a rooftop in Brooklyn
At one in the morning
Watching the lights flash
In Manhattan
[Verse 2]
I see five bridges
The Empire State Building
And you said something
That I've never forgotten
[Verse 3]
Lean against railings
Describing the colors
And the smells of our homelands
Acting like lovers
[Verse 4]
How did we get here?
To this point of living?
I held my breath
And you said something
[Verse 5]
And I'm doing nothing wrong
Riding in your car
Your radio playing
We sing up to the eighth floor
[Verse 6]
A rooftop, Manhattan
One in the morning
And you said something
That I've never forgotten
[Verse 7]
You said something
You said something
You said something
That was really important
