身在高地

No te vayas

Si me dejas

Si te alejas

De mi

Seguirás en mis recuerdos

Para siempre--

Para siempre-- Para siempre--

Para siem-- Para siem--

Para siempre

Lights out on Washington Heights

And now the crack of dawn

I pack as life goes on And on and on

Time to go, But I'm doing the math

On this cash money To have Sonny Stay on his path

Abuela really wanted me Up on a beach With margaritas in my reach

And soon that's How it's gonna be

And look at me, Leavin' today

On a 747 boardin' JFK

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes blow

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes blow

Good morning

Piragua, piragua

Cool breezes

New block of ice, piragua

Blow

So sweet and nice, piragua

Piragua, piragua

The hydrants are open

Piragua, piragua

Cool breezes

New block of ice, piragua

Blow

So sweet and nice, piragua

Piragua, piragua

Siempre

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes

New block of ice, piragua

Blow

So sweet and nice, piragua

It won't be long now

There's a breeze Off the Hudson And just when

You think You're sick of living here The memory floods in

The morning light Off the fire escapes

The nights in Bennett Park Blasting Big Pun tapes

I'mma miss this place To tell you the truth

Kevin dispensin' wisdom From his dispatch booth

And at dawn Vanessa at the salon

We gotta move on But who's gonna notice We're gone?

When our job's done

As the evening winds down To a crawl, son

Can I ease my mind When we're all done?

When we've resigned In the long run What do we leave behind?

Most of all, I'll miss Abuela's whispers

Doin' the Lotto Pick Six Every Christmas

In five years, When this whole city's Rich folks and hipsters

Who's gonna miss This raggedy little business?

Hey, you.

Hey.

Do you have two minutes?

Yeah.

You said you wanted to see the world through my eyes, right?

Yeah. -Come with me.

No peeking. -All right.

Okay. -All right.

Watch it.

Where am I going? -Just stand right here.

Where? -No peeking.

I'm not-- -I can feel you trying to open your eyes, okay?

I'm not trying-- -Just don't.

Hold on.

Okay, open.

After I left your place last night, I just...

walked around for a while.

And then I ran into Pete.

And I saw one of his drop cloths, and...

I thought that this is my next piece.

So I called Sonny and I told him to open up the bodega,

'cause my fingers needed to move.

She started working and was like, "I need more drop cloths."

So I started painting.

Yo, how did you...

That's my dad's beach.

Yeah. You had all those photos by the register.

I worked from memory.

I did the crab in the corner.

What's so funny?

Who cares about the crab in the corner?

What you mean, the crab is like the best part.

No, it is not. It's in the corner for a reason.

So what, are you saying you don't like my crab?

I may be saying a lot of things,

that just looks like a fourth-grader drew that.

You could sell that. - No, I cannot. For how much?

25 cents? - No, I think a couple of grand.

What?

Yeah. -I'm saying... just...

He hates it.

He's forming an artistic opinion.

You did this last night?

Yeah

There goes my flight

What?

Graffiti Pete you're gonna Need some new cans Here's some money, finish up

There's been A slight change of plans

Nice.

Listen up guys, you got a job I'm not playin'

You gotta go now Tell the whole block I'm stayin'

So go ahead, Tell everyone we know Sonny...

All right, go

Yo! Usnavi's stayin'!

Yeah, I'm a streetlight Chillin' in the heat

I illuminate the stories Of the people in the street

Some have happy endings Some are bittersweet

But I know them all And that's what Makes my life complete

Yeah!

And if not me, Who keeps our legacies?

Who's gonna keep The coffee sweet With secret recipes?

Abuela, rest in peace You live in my memories

But Sonny's gotta eat This corner is my destiny

Brings out the best in me We pass a test And we keep pressin'

And yes indeed You know I'll never leave

If you close your eyes That hydrant is a beach That siren is a breeze

That fire escape's a leaf On a palm tree

Abuela, I'm sorry But I ain't goin' back

Because I'm telling Your story

And I can say goodbye To you smilin' I found my island

I been on it this whole time I'm home

Until then...

I thought it was past tense.

What?

The best days of my life.

So I stayed.

And I built my little dream, my sueñito,

here, in Washington Heights.

Say it, so it doesn't disappear.

Washington Heights!

Because this place... this is it.

You... you, nena.

You're it.

Para siempre--

I have a date tonight.

I take note.

But, there's a chance, right?

We sold... a winner!

Start small, dream big.

Little details...

that tell the world we are not invisible.

Can we go to the water now?

Man, you've been talking forever.

Yeah, come on, Iris.

Please, Daddy? Can I go, too?

Ask your mother.

Mami, can I?

Please?

Yes, mi vida, go.

Yes!

Love you, Daddy.

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes blow

We're home

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes blow

It's a wonderful life That I've known

Merry Christmas you ol' Building and Loan!

I'm home

The hydrants are open

Cool breezes blow

Abuela, that ain't a stoop That's your throne

Long after your birds Have all flown I'm home

Where the coffee's non-stop And I drop this hip-hop

In my mom and pop shop I'm home

Where people come, people go Let me show all of these people What I know

There's no place like home

And let me set The record straight

I'm steppin' to Vanessa I'm gettin' a second date

I'm home Where it's 100 in the shade

But with patience and faith We remain unafraid

I'm home

You hear that music In the air?

Take the train To the top of the world And I'm there
