a-ha - Manhattan Skyline

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
Wave goodbye (wave goodbye)

You know?
I don't wanna cry again
Don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't want to cry again
I don't want to run away
I don't want to race this pain
I'll never see your face again

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
No

I 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

You know?
I don't wanna fall again
I don't want to know this pain
I don't want another friend
I don't want to try again
Don't want to see you hurt
Don't let me see you hurt
I don't wanna 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
(I don't wanna cry again)

So I read to myself
A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons
On the front page
A black and white picture of
Manhattan skyline
