Manhattan lyrics


Lipstick on the rim
takes me back to him
sipping slowly
before he holds me.

A cherry with a twist,
bitters on his lips
leaves me tipsy
with the taste of whiskey.

When he’s away I go to the lobby.
Bartender asks, “hun what will it be?”

Make me a Manhattan
cause then he’ll be by my side again.
Call me old fashioned
but every sip makes me remember when.
So make me a Manhattan.

A drink that has a view
of 5th Avenue.
Forget we’re in the city
when his hands are busy.

Lost in Central Park
I can feel his heart
ticking like Time Square.
His hands pull on my hair.

Bartender says, “your glass is looking empty.”
And I could use another round of memories.

Make me a Manhattan
cause then he’ll be by my side again.
Call me old fashioned
but every sip makes me remember when.
So make me a Manhattan.

So make me a Manhattan.
