Manhattan Skyline (Live In Oslo, Norway, 2001)

We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
I hear myself say
"My boat's leaving now", so we shake hands and cry

Now I must wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave (goodbye, wave goodbye), let me hear you
(Wave goodbye, wave goodbye) thank you
You know

I don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna cry again
Don't wanna say goodbye

I don't wanna cry again
Don't wanna run the pain
Don't wanna raise this pain
I'll never see your face again, yeah

Oh, but how
How can you say that I didn't try?
You see things in the depths of my eyes
That my love's run dry

We leave to their goodbyes
I've come to depend on the look in their eyes
My blood's sweet for pain
The wind and the rain bring back words of a song

And they say wave goodbye (wave goodbye)
Wave goodbye (wave goodbye)
Wave goodbye (wave goodbye)
But you know

I don't wanna fall again
Don't wanna raise this pain
Don't want another friend
Don't wanna try again

Don't want to see you hurt
Don't let me see you hurt
I don't want to cry again
I'll never see your face again

How can you say that I didn't try?
You know I did
You see things in the depths of my eyes
That my love's run dry

So I read to myself
A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons
