Testo What More Do I Need? - Liz Callaway
Testo della canzone What More Do I Need? (Liz Callaway), tratta dall'album A Stephen Sondheim Evening (Concert Cast Recording)
Once I hated this city
Now it can't get me down
Slushy, humid and gritty
What a pretty town
What thought I could be duller
More depressing, less gay?
Now my favorite color is gray
A wall of rain as it turns to sleet
The lack of sun on a one-way street
I love the grime all the time
And what more do I need?
My window pane has a lovely view
An inch of sky and a fly or two
Why? I can see half a tree
And what more do I need?
The dusk is thick and it's galling
It simply can't be excused
In winter, even the falling snow looks used
My window pane doesn't give much light
But I see you, so the view is bright
If I can love you, I'll pay the dirt no heed
With your love, what more do I need?
Someone shouting for quiet
Someone's starting a brawl
Down the block there's a riot
And I'll buy it all
Listen, now I'm ecstatic
Hold me close and keep still
Hear the lovely pneumatic drill
A subway train thunders through the Bronx
A taxi horn on the corner honks
But I adore every roar
And what more do I need?
I hear a crane making street repairs
A two-ton child running wild upstairs
Steam pipes bang, sirens clang
And what more do I need?
The neighbors yell in the summer
The landlord yells in the fall
So loud I can't hear the plumber pound the wall
An aeroplane roars across the bay
But I can hear you as clear as day
You said you love me above the sound and speed
With your love, what more do I need?
