Central Park Serenade Songtext
von Renée Fleming & Gregory Porter

Mmmmm, oh yeah

Central Park Serenade
Counted the minutes, counted the days
Now I′m on my way
Back to you

Been away much too long
Another minute and I'll be gone
My missing you days are all through

I′ll take an early flight
I'll take a taxi right
And I'll be there
And I′ll be there in no time

It′s good to be back, good to be back again
I don't know why I ever left
But I′m coming back now

Slash of heaven right from the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
And the band plays on
And everybody sings along


Central Park winter day
Mother's talking while children play
Take a heart chocolate to go

Taking all the crazy sights
Far from all the traffic lights
Stop and tell a stranger or two
Hello

Watch lovers passing by
I′ll have a snowball fight
And take a ride in a horse drawn sleigh tonight

It's good to be back, good to be back again
I don′t know, know why I ever left
But I'm coming back now

Slash of heaven right off the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
And the band plays on
And everybody sings along

Central Park winter nights
When the city comes alive
You never know what the night will bring


Christmas in the park after dark
Who knows who's gonna steal your heart
You feel like you′re ready for anything

You never know tonight
Some might catch your eye
Rocking your world and
Change your whole world just like that

Good to be back, good to be back again
I don′t know why I ever left
But I'm coming back now

Slash of heaven right off the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
And the band plays on
And everybody sings along

Everybody sing
Everybody sings along
Everybody sing

Mmmmmm, yeah
