Sunrise on Avenue C Songtext
von James Maddock

The bars are closed and the streets are dead
And you′d kill to be asleep in bed
But the powder carried you away
And now you face the light of day
From a basement bar she rises from the ground
Climbs the rail and pulls that shutter down

Ain't you got a kiss for me
The village is a symphony
Where else would you want to be
It′s sunrise on Avenue C
Sunrise on Avenue C

We came to make this place our home
You say you've had enough, you're moving on
We stood our ground and built our dream
But you say "nothing′s quite the way it seems"
Forget the past; we′ll start our lives again
Don't shake your head cause baby I know we can


Ain′t you got a kiss for me
The village is a symphony
Where else would you want to be
It's sunrise on Avenue C
Hey, it may not be the Mona Li′
The Ritz or Yosemite
But its good enough for you and me
It's sunrise on Avenue C
Sunrise, sunrise on Avenue C
Sunrise, sunrise on Avenue C

Don′t be blue, you made the big time
You're on the stage in morning sunshine
So do the dance like no ones watching you
We'll find our place and start our lives anew
Don′t shake your head, have some faith in me and you

Ain′t you got a kiss for me
The village is a symphony
Where else would you want to be
Sunrise on Avenue C
Hey, it may not be the Mona Li'
The Ritz or Yosemite
But it′s good enough for you and me
It's sunrise on Avenue C
Sunrise, sunrise on Avenue C
Sunrise, sunrise on Avenue C
