New York Morning Lyrics - The Take Off And Landing Of Everything - Elbow

The first to pour a simple truth in words 

Binds the world in a feeling all familiar 

'Cause everybody owns the great ideas 

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner 

A tenner, up and out into New York 

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers 

And oh, my giddy aunt, New York can talk 

It's the modern road where folk are nice to Yoko 

Every bone of rivet steel, each corner stone an anchor 

Jenga jutts and rusty water tower, pillar-posted sign 

Every painted lining battered, like a building in this town 

Sings a life of proud endeavour and the best that man can be

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Me, I see a city and I hear a million voices 

Planning, drilling, welding, carrying their fingers to the nub 

Reaching down into the ground, stretching up into the sky 

Why? 

Because they can, they did and do so you and I could live together 

Oh my god, New York can talk 

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers 

Everybody owns the great ideas 

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner 

Oh my god, New York can talk 

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers 

Everybody owns the great's ideas 

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner 

Oh my god, New York can talk 

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers 

Everybody owns the great's ideas 

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner 

The desire to part sure symphony 

The desire like a distant storm 

For love, be good for me 

It feels like there's a big one round the corner 

Oh my god, New York can talk 

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers 

Everybody owns the great ideas 

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner 

The way the day begins 

Decides the shade of everything 

But the way it ends depends on if you're home 

For every soul, a pillow at a window, please 

In a modern room, where folk are nice to Yoko
