From The Fall 2009

Written by Norah Jones

Lyrics

Back to Manhattan

I'll go back to Manhattan As if nothing ever happened When I cross that bridge It'll be as if this don't exist I've a prince who is waiting And a kingdom downtown I'll go back to Manhattan As if nothing ever happened We don't have to speak at all I won't look in your eyes And I won't have to fall We don't have to speak at all But Brooklyn holds you And it holds my heart too What a fool I was to think I could live in both worlds We don't have to speak at all I won't look in your eyes And I won't have to fall We don't have to speak at all I should go back to Manhattan It's just a train ride away I know nothing about leaving But I know I should do it today
