[Verse-1] Manhattan autumn, a morning like any other She woke up thinking shes the luckiest mother But she feels so helpless when hes not around She feels the weakness hes always kept her from [Verse-2] Said mama Im off now, I've made you pancakes I will give you a call on every break Bent down to kiss her and take a look through her eyes To read the words she would never let him realize [Bridge] Dont go, I need you In every breath I breathe you Its yet to come [Chorus] The moment to know... [Verse-3] Staring at the tree, outside the window She was counting the leaves, waiting for the next wind to blow
But out of the blue, there came a strong wind Shook 'em off of the tree, all the yellows and greens [Verse-4] Gla**es were shaking, panic in the streets Chilled to the bone, she was caught in a bad dream Emergency sirens filling any gaps of silence She could hear her words out there but no longer soundless [Bridge] Dont go, I need you In every breath I breathe you And here it comes [Chorus] The moment to know [verse-5] The moment to know he was flying away And she will never find the words to pray The moment to know he will never come home Manhattan autumn remains forever grey
