Paroles de What more do i need?

Once i hated this city
Now it can't get me down
Slushy, humid and gritty
What a pretty town

What thought i could be duller
More depressing, less gay
Now my favorite color
Is gray

A wall of rain as it turns to sleep
The lack of sun on a one-way street
I love the grime all the time
And what more do i need?

My window pane has a lovely view
An inch of sky and a fly or two
Why i can see half a tree
And what more do i need?

The dusk is thick and it's galling
It simply can't be excused
In winter even the falling snow looks
Used

My window pane may not give much light
But i see you, so the view is bright
If i can love you, i'll pay the dirt no heed
With your love what more do i need?

Someone shouting for quiet
Someone starting a brawl
Down the block there's a riot
And i'll buy it all

Listen now, i'm ecstatic
Hold me close and be still
Hear the lovely pneumatic
Drill

A subway train thunders through the bronx
A taxi horn on the corner honks
But i adore every roar
And what more do i need?

I hear a crane making street repairs
A two ton child running wild upstairs
Steam pipes bang, sirens clang
And what more do i need?

The neighbors yell in the summer
The landlord yells in the fall
So loud i can't hear the plumber
Pound the wall

An aeroplane roars across the bay
But i can hear you as clear as day
You said you loved me
Above the sound and speed
With your love what more do i need?
