Shenandoah Davis East-Facing Window lyrics
East-Facing Window
Shenandoah Davis
GENRE
[Verse 1]
We meet at the airport, take the A to the city
I'm a little bit nervous, as anyone would be
The view of the statue from the morning ferry
And the east-facing window woke us too early
[Refrain 1]
In Grand Central Station, you asked me a question
That no one ever thought to ask before
You said, "What did you come here for?"
[Verse 2]
My arm in your jacket, your hand in my vest
There's no city bird here who could build such a nest
And I had these ideas that were far-flung at best
And a bit premature, still, so they stayed on my chest
[Verse 3]
Let's hang up our artwork in a borrowed apartment
Find new occupations, pretend we belong here
I mean, all our friends have done it
(And it's not like they're geniuses or anything)
So how hard could it be? You seem pretty clever to me
[Refrain 2]
But Grand Central Station gave me a reason to pause
So I told you that I came here just because
It's never been clear what to make of us two
But Grand Central Station gave me a clue
Gave me a clue
We meet at the airport, take the A to the city
I'm a little bit nervous, as anyone would be
The view of the statue from the morning ferry
And the east-facing window woke us too early
[Refrain 1]
In Grand Central Station, you asked me a question
That no one ever thought to ask before
You said, "What did you come here for?"
[Verse 2]
My arm in your jacket, your hand in my vest
There's no city bird here who could build such a nest
And I had these ideas that were far-flung at best
And a bit premature, still, so they stayed on my chest
[Verse 3]
Let's hang up our artwork in a borrowed apartment
Find new occupations, pretend we belong here
I mean, all our friends have done it
(And it's not like they're geniuses or anything)
So how hard could it be? You seem pretty clever to me
[Refrain 2]
But Grand Central Station gave me a reason to pause
So I told you that I came here just because
It's never been clear what to make of us two
But Grand Central Station gave me a clue
Gave me a clue
