F C G
On a rooftop in Brooklyn
F C G
One in the morning
F C G
Watching the lights flash

In Manhattan

I see five bridges

The empire state building

And you said something
Am C G
That I've never forgotten

We lean against railings
F C G
Describing the colours
F C G
And the smells of our homelands
F C G
Acting like lovers
Am D C
How did we get here?
Am D C
To this point of living?
F C G
I held my breath
Am C G
And you said something

And I am doing nothing wrong

Riding in your car

Your radio playing

A rooftop, in Manhattan
Am D C
One in the morning

When you said something

When you said something

When you said something
F C G
When you said something

That was really important
