Penthouse Serenade
A Romantic Sanctuary in Manhattan's Sky
Lyrics
Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
Imagining a luxurious penthouse high in the sky
With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
Chimneys with hinges symbolizing a celestial pathway for stars
A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I
Describing the penthouse as a heavenly place for two
When we're alone
Emphasizing the intimacy when the couple is alone
From all of society, we'll stay aloof
Choosing to distance themselves from society
And live in propriety there on the roof
Living with proper conduct on the rooftop
Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
Characterizing themselves as heavenly hermits in truth
When we're alone
Reiterating the intimacy and seclusion when alone
We'll see life's mad pattern
Expecting to understand life's unpredictable nature
As we view old Manhattan
Observing the cityscape, particularly Manhattan
Then we can thank our lucky stars
Expressing gratitude for their fortunate situation
That we're living as we are
Appreciating their current way of life
In our little penthouse, we'll always contrive
Planning to maintain love and romance in their small penthouse
To keep love and romance forever alive
Committing to sustaining love and romance
In view of the Hudson, just over the drive
Referring to the view of the Hudson River from their location
When we're alone
Reiterating the intimacy when alone
We can thank our lucky stars
Expressing gratitude again for their fortunate situation
That we're living as we are
Appreciating their current way of life (repeated)
In our little penthouse, we'll always contrive
Planning to maintain love and romance in their small penthouse (repeated)
To keep love and romance forever alive
Committing to sustaining love and romance (repeated)
In view of the Hudson, just over the drive
Referring to the view of the Hudson River from their location (repeated)
When we're alone
Reiterating the intimacy when alone (repeated)
