howard ashman - sheridan square lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
with a corner to catch the subway
and a corner to buy cigars
and a corner to wait for the “times” to come out
and a corner to lean on cars

[chorus]
it was something just left to the mardi gras
when my friends and their friends were there
but it’s getting much too quiet
tonight on sheridan square

[verse 2]
i’m sure that it must mean something
but it’s really too soon to tell
when somebody’s gettin’ famous
while n0body’s gettin’ well

[chorus]
and you can send my regrets to the party
i’d like to make it, but just don’t dare
and why is it still so quiet
tonight on sheridan square?

[bridge]
johnny and steve and martin
and a list that goes on too long
dennis and bill and barry
you’re the reason i wrote this song

[verse 3]
some of the boys have panic
but none of the boys leave town
they say, “we’re on the good ship t-tanic
we’re gonna sing ’til the boat goes down.”

[chorus]
and if it ended before it started
well no one told us that life is fair
and why is it still so quiet
tonight on sheridan square?

[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
somebody make a note of this
you people who know the trends
the wild ones are turning lovers
the lovers are turning friends

[chorus]
and if some good rises out of everything
then the phoenix is rising there
in the eyes that are scared, but softer
tonight on sheridan square

[bridge]
johnny and steve and martin
and a list that goes on too long
dennis and bill and barry
you’re the reason i wrote this song

[instrumental break]

[outro]
when you carry a load like we do
what’s another few pounds to share?
we can make it until the sun comes up
and it will
over sheridan square
