You Said Something Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

On a rooftop in brooklyn 

At one in the morning 

Watching the lights flash 

In manhattan 

I see fire bridges 

The empire state building 

And you said something 

That I've never forgotten 

We lean against railings 

Describing the colors 

And the smells of our homelands 

Acting like lovers 

How did we get here 

To this point of living 

I held my breath 

You said something 

And I'm doing nothing wrong 

Riding in you car 

The radio playing 

We sing up to the eighth floor 

On a rooftop manhattan 

One in the morning 

You said something 

That I've never forgotten 

You said something 

You said something 

You said something 

That was really important
