Il Passaparola

You Something Something

On a rooftop in Brooklyn
At 1:00 in the morning
Watching the lights flash
In Manhattan
I see 5 bridges
The Empire State Building

And you said something
That I've never forgotten

We lean against railings
Describing the colours
And the smells of our homelands
Acting like lovers

How did we get here?
To this point in living?

I held my breath
And you said something

And I'm doing nothing wrong
Riding in your car
The radio playing
We sing up to the 8th floor

Of a rooftop, Manhattan
At 1:00 in the morning

And you said something
That I've never forgotten

You said something
You said something
You said something

That was really important
