Hanukkah In The Village - Rachael Sage

I can see Patricia Field’s out my window

I can see the «Holiday Sale» sign in the night

This is how I know it’s time for the New York holiday

‘Cause everything expensive’s suddenly in sight… could it be right?

Hanukkah in the Village… Hanukkah on the Lower East Side

Hanukkah it’s an image… of menorahs flickering like city lights

Do you remember the time that you got me those Hello Kitty pajamas?

Do you recall the time that I got you the front row tickets to Alanis?

And I wasn’t even jealous when you said that she was hot

‘Cause this is the time of season we take stock of what we’ve got… and we’ve got

Eight days of miracles

Eight days when the oil burns bright

Eight days of miracles… and menorahs

Wandering through Whole Foods down on Houston

Suddenly I’m overwhelmed by the choice

But everyone’s so friendly and so helpful

Wandering the latke aisle I hear a voice… a beautiful noise:

Hanukkah in the Village… Hanukkah on the Lower East Side

Hanukkah it’s an image… of menorahs flickering like city lights, like city lights

Eight days of miracles

Eight days when the oil burns bright

Eight days of miracles… and menorahs

Do you remember the time that I got you those season tickets to The Public

Do you recall the time that I got you the boxed set of Dionne Warwick

And I wasn’t even nervous when you looked me in the eyes

And asked me to spin your dreidel for the rest of our lives…'cause we’ve got

Eight days of miracles

Eight days when the oil burns bright

Eight days of miracles… eight days when the oil burns bright

Hanukkah in the Village

Hanukkah on the Lower East Side

Hanukkah it’s an image… of menorahs flickering like city lights, like city lights
