Just picture a penthouse Way up in the sky With hinges on chimneys For stars to go by A slice of Heaven For just you and I When we’re alone From all of society We’ll stay aloof And live in propriety There on the roof To Heaven, we hermits We will be in truth When we’re alone We’ll see life’s mad pattern As we view Manhattan Then we can thank our lucky stars That we’re living as we are In our little penthouse We’ll always contrive To keep love and romance Forever alive In view of the Hudson Just over the drive When we’re alone Sunsets in the village Paintings left unfinished Twinkling lights in Central Park Love is waiting for the dark In our little penthouse On top of the town Each evening we’ll stargaze We’ll never look down The Heavens are our rooftop A shimmering crown When we’re alone Just you Just me We’ll live in harmony Enjoying each moment The rest of our lives When we’re alone
