Load the car and write the note Grab your bag and grab your coat Tell the ones that need to know - We are headed north One foot in and one foot back But it don't play to live like that So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks For never to return Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Are you aware the shape Im in? My hands they shake my head it spins - Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in When at first i learned to speak I used all my words to fight With him and her and you and me Aw but its just a waste of time Yea its such a waste of time That women she's got eyes that shine Like a pair of stolen polished dimes - She asked to dance I said it's fine (aw it's fine) I'll see you in the morning time Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Are you aware the shape Im in? My hands they shake my head it spins - Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Three words that became hard to say I and love and you What you are then I am today Look at the things I do Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Are you aware the shape Im in? My hands they shake my head it spins - Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Dumb down and numbed by time and age Your dreams they catch the world the cage The highway sets the travelers stage All exits look the same Three words that became hard to say I and love and you I and love and you I and love and you Enjoy, peace and love
