Penthouse Serenade

Penthouse Serenade - Tony Bennett (託尼·班奈特)

Here in this big city

Many people come and go

But my love we two

Are a permanent thing

Like a bird on a wing

Or the coming of spring

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
