Apartment
written by E. Grant
They lived the good life
Up on Forty-Second Street
Above the catwalks and alleyways
She keeps their two room neat
He thinks of his life
As never lacking anything
But the sounds of children rise above the street
And he's lost in a dream
He's at work all day
She just sits at home and plays
There ain't no money coming in today
But they ain't got no bills to pay
At their apartment
She thinks of her life
As open doors and paved highways
She's not known for meeting in the middle
But it's all part of that game they play
He's at work all day
She just sits at home and plays
There ain't no money coming in today
But they ain't got no bills to pay
At their apartment
So love moves on in their life
Different sunsets mark the day
They remember their humbling beginnings
As rough as dust and dirt and clay
Baby stay home today
We'll just sit around the house and play
There ain't no money coming in today
But I never see you these days
At our apartment
Up on Forty-Second Street
Above the catwalks and alleyways
She keeps their two room neat
He thinks of his life
As never lacking anything
But the sounds of children rise above the street
And he's lost in a dream
He's at work all day
She just sits at home and plays
There ain't no money coming in today
But they ain't got no bills to pay
At their apartment
She thinks of her life
As open doors and paved highways
She's not known for meeting in the middle
But it's all part of that game they play
He's at work all day
She just sits at home and plays
There ain't no money coming in today
But they ain't got no bills to pay
At their apartment
So love moves on in their life
Different sunsets mark the day
They remember their humbling beginnings
As rough as dust and dirt and clay
Baby stay home today
We'll just sit around the house and play
There ain't no money coming in today
But I never see you these days
At our apartment
