We sit and watch umbrellas fly
  I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
  I hear myself say
  My boat's leaving now
  So we shake hands and cry
  Now I must wave goodbye
  Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
  Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
  
  You know I don't want to cry again
  I'll never see your face again
  I don't want to cry again
  
  We leave to their goodbyes
  I've come to depend on the look in their eyes
  My blood's sweet for pain
  The wind and the rain brings back words of a song
  And they sing wave goodbye
  Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
  Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
  
  You know I don't want to cry again
  I'll never see your face again
  I don't want to cry again
  
  So I read to myself
  A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons

  Manhattan Skyline
