dawn upshaw – what more do i need? lyrics
what more do i need? lyrics
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 g+y?
now my favorite color
is gray!
a wall of rain as it turns to sleet
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?
someonе shouting for quiet
someone’s starting a brawl
down thе 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 h+rn
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 love me
above the sound and speed
with your love, what more do i need?
