作曲:

Uhm what is this

Oh come on A childhood memento

Let's put it there on the shelf

How bout the back of the pantry

My brother made it himself

Good thing your brother doesn't live here

Hey do you think we could clean out some of the stuff in your closet

What stuff Didn't we make room for all your things Look your drafting table fits perfectly over there

Honey what is all this old junk Do you really need it

Just things I want to hold on to

Oh come on Old birthday cards ticket stubs I've never even seen you wear this sweater

I want to keep it okay

Hey let's take the day just unpack

We'll both be given more space

Once everything is in its place

Oh my God

What is it

You kept this

Of course I did

Top ten things to do in New York before you leave it

The cover story in this magazine

I threw it in the trash

And I said Go retrieve it

Nine of those things are things you've never seen

Number Ten eat a bagel

That's the one I've done

Number Nine root for the Mets

Does this go on

All the way to Number One

Number Eight insists we go to Brooklyn

To see where they make beer

Number Seven calls for

Trapeze lessons

She grabs my hand and suddenly we're at the pier

They've got a tent set up right by the river

This whole circus thing who knew

You go in a classroom for an hour and they show you what to do

Then one at a time they make you climb so high into the air

And as I go up it's hard not to throw up

But I'm trying

Every week we pick a number

And work our way on down the list

Broadway shows

Botanic gardens

A tour of City Hall

There wasn't one we missed

Number Three describes some cooking classes

At the Institute Francais

I'm allergic to the French you know

He makes a face

I sign us both up anyway

She's got a knack for flipping over omelets

She becomes the teacher's pet

Meanwhile he's got yoke stuck in his egg whites

And he's getting quite upset

I am not upset

I'm simply letting breakfast stir my soul

So he can't cook

But honey look I'm trying

In my head I draw a map that shows the whole entire city

I put a mental pushpin at the places where we laugh

Like Number Four that fancy store

The salesman who ignored us

Or Number Two

The Zoo

And that giraffe

It was fun you know to see the city

I would do it all again

But that was what a year ago

And all those places well

We haven't been since then

I remember when we finally got finished

The Number One thing to do

I hadn't been to Central Park in ages

So I'm soaking up the view

We're just standing still

The city's silhouette against the sky

And I think Why can't this moment last

Instead of slipping into the past

I want to keep that moment with me all of the time

And heaven knows that I'm -

Hey let me be your tour guide this time I know exactly where to find Number Eleven

I'm trying
