"Rooftop Garden" lyrics

Bill Callahan & Bonnie "Prince" Billy Lyrics

"Rooftop Garden"
(feat. George Xylouris)
(originally by Lou Reed)


Sitting in our rooftop garden
Looking down below
Sitting in our rooftop garden
Waiting for the sun

Isn't it lovely watching a plane go by
What a lovely couple are you and I

Sitting in our rooftop garden
A few drops of rain
The lights in the city blinking on
Just the same

No sugar in my coffee, how's your tea?
In our rooftop garden above the city

Let's not reading any letters
Let's not answer the phone
Let's just pretend there's no one at home
Let's just pretend there's no one at home

In our rooftop garden above the city
In our rooftop garden above the city
In our rooftop garden
In our rooftop garden
Up on the roof
Up on the roof
