From the recording Cosmo and Manhattan
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">When I was single I'd watch the happy couples in the bars where I played and wish I could be like them. I wrote this song about a couple of regulars who, as it turned out, were not a couple but just very good friends. It still made for a good story.</span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Cosmo and Manhattan come in here every Sunday and they</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">slide into their usual seats.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Spent the day out shopping, now it’s time for stopping for a </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">cold one and a visit with me.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy to be here, so happy to feel this way</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy that it’s Cosmo and Manhattan day.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Cosmo and Manhattan look kind of like each other, well they</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">say that happens after a while.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Toasting with their glasses, I’m sure they have their problems but you’d</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">never know it seeing them smile.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy to be here, so happy to feel this way</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy that it’s Cosmo and Manhattan day.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">We’re part of a scene, we live in a dream</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">It’s a world everyone’s alright with.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">As I walk home alone, wish for one of my own</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">to share some early nights with, just like...</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Cosmo and Manhattan are looking at their watches, and</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Manhattan draws a check in the air.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">Bracing for the subway, a much too early Monday</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">But when Sunday comes again they’ll be there</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy to be here, so happy to feel this way</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: small;">So happy that it’s Cosmo and Manhattan day.</span></strong></p>
