Central park serenade

Renée Fleming & Gregory Porter

Gregory:
Central Park Serenade
Count the minutes, counted the days
Now I'm on my way back to you
Renée:
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
Gregory:
I'll take a taxi ride
Renée:
And I'll be there
Renée & Gregory:
And I'll be there in no time flat

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

Gregory:
Slice of heaven right off the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
Renée & Gregory:
And a band plays on,
Gregory:
And everybody sings along Renée:
Central Park, winter day
Mothers talking while children play
I'll take a hot chocolate to go
Gregory:
And take in all the crazy sights
Far from all the traffic lights
And stop and tell a stranger or two "Hello"

Renée:
Watch lovers passing by
Gregory:
I'll have a snowball fight
Renée:
And take a ride
Renée & Gregory:
Inside a horse drawn sleigh at night

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

Renée:
Slice of heaven right off the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
Renée & Gregory:
And a band plays on,
Renée:
And everybody sings along

Renée:
Central Park, winter night
When the city comes alive
You never know what the night will bring Gregory:
Christmas in the park after dark
Who knows who's gonna steal your heart?
You feel like you're ready for anything

Renée & Gregory:
You never know tonight
Someone might catch your eye
Walk in your world
And change your whole world just like that

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

Renée & Gregory:
Slice of heaven right off the city streets
Touch of magic under my feet
And a band plays on,
Renée:
And everybody sings along
Gregory:
Everybody sings
Renée:
And everybody sings along
Gregory:
Sings along
