Текст Lea Salonga – Manhattan

Summer journeys
To Niag’ra
And to other places
Aggravate all our cares

I’ve a cozy little flat
In what is known as old Manhattan
We’ll settle down
Right here in town
This town

We’ll have Manhattan
The Bronx and Staten
Island too
It’s lovely going through
The zoo

It’s very fancy
On old Delancey
Street, you know
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro
And tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street
In July?
The pushcarts gently gliding by

The great big city’s a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
We’ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy

Hi, everyone

Manhattan, we’ll turn
Into an isle of joy

We’ll have Manhattan
The Bronx and Staten
Island too
We’ll try to cross’
Fifth Avenue

We’ll go to Coney
And eat baloney
On a roll
Through Central Park we’ll stroll
Where our first kiss we stole
Soul to soul

I’d like to take a
Sail on Jamaica
Bay with you
And fair Canarsie’s lake
We’ll view

The city’s bustle cannot destroy
The dreams of a girl and boy
Oh, happy to like New York
I haapy to like this town
We’ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy

The city’s clamor can never spoil
The dreams of a boy and goil.
We’ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy

My isle of joy
