what more do i need - ann woodfield lyrics

[verse 1]
once i hated this city
now it can 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

[chorus]
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 dust is thick and it’s galling
it simply can’t be excused
in winter even the falling snow looks used
my window pane may not 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?
[verse 2]
someonе shouting for quiet
someone starting a brawl
down thе block there’s a riot
and i’ll buy it all!
listen, now i’m ecstatic
hold me close and be still
hear the lovely pneumatic
drill

[chorus]
a subway train thunders through the bronx
a taxi h*rn 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 loved me above the sound and speed
with your love, what more do i need?
