A Map of New York (Explicit) 歌詞
A Map of New York (Explicit) - Idina Menzel/Jerry Dixon
Think of each plaza pier and public park
How many sit there empty lonely dark
Think of it for tomorrow's sake
Think of how you and I can make our mark
You and I
We can draw a brand-new grid
Everything that you dreamed of as a kid
Give it a year and go with me
Soon enough you'll say "Look what we two did"
You've always had the right dream
We've always made a tight team
Now at last you're back
Exactly where you ought to be
So let's make a map of New York you and me
(New Yorker:)
Twenty-two Reade a building sidewalk shade
(Another New Yorker:)
Now a memory that for Beth will never fade
(Beth:)
And I could be planning city sites
Where memories just like this one might be made
(Writer:)
Thirty-three Bond
Where I wrote my first book
(Chef:)
Greenwich and Moore
Where I learend how to cook
(Young Woman:)
The Center Street courts
I intern there
(Beth:)
The joy of this job is everywhere I look
(Messenger:)
That market was my first job
(Elena:)
That diner was my worst job
(Those Six:)
And everywhere around me are these lives I left behind
(Foreman:)
The Tunnel where I laid rail
(Realtor:)
The co-op where I made my first sale
(All Eight:)
They make a map of New York in my mind
(Anne:)
Put a sticker on the map where you landed that first day
(Kate:)
Put a pin on the bridge
(Lucas:)
On the train
(Anne:)
On J F K
(Beth:)
On the street where I swore I'd afford a place some day
(Kate Anne Lucas & New Yorkers:)
Ev'ry avenue and place
Ev'ry building ev'ry face
Of the lovers and the friends
The beginnings and the ends
Make a map of NYC
Where I've been and who I'll be
And you'll find me
(Liz:)
And you're feeling adrift alone apart
Then suddenly life will somehow start
And a map of New York is written on your heart
(New Yorkers:)
On your heart
On your heart
(Beth:)
I'm too old for all that shit
To be told I'm selling out
Then again all these years
Did I lose what I'm about
On the street in the cold
It's so hard to fight the doubt
(Beth & New Yorkers:)
Then you hear the tunnel hum
With a rain about to come
And you surface to the street
And you fall into the beat
You can trace a line to me
On that map of NYC
Right where I should be
(Stephen:)
Think of how human life will ebb and flow
(Stephen & Beth:)
People and how they'll come and how they'll go
Remember the things we hoped and planned
(Stephen:)
Remember them and believe them and you'll know
(Beth & Stephen:)
We'll know
(Beth Stephen & New Yorkers:)
We never walk a straight line
We never check a street sign
(Beth & Stephen:)
But it's in the detour that we truly find our way
(Stephen & New Yorkers:)
We always know the way home
(Beth & New Yorkers:)
As long as we can stay here we're home
(Beth:)
And we make a map of work
(New Yorkers:)
Love and loss and life
(Stephen:)
And we make a map of play
(New Yorkers:)
We find our way
(Stephen & New Yorkers:)
And we make a map of New York ev'ry day
(New Yorker:)
Ending the night at 23rd and Third
(Another New Yorker:)
Liz and her date
Who's hanging on each word
