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
