Brooklyn Nights
I always thought it was youYou always thought it was meWe always thought we were itSeemed like a real perfect fitThose Brooklyn nights set us free
I always thought even thoughWe were so young we could growUp in the end it'd be usWe'd take the F or the busWhere Brooklyn nights set us free
It's not that I don't wanna love youIt's not that I'm really over it, you knowIt's just that I can't watch us bleed to deathWhen we used to beBrooklyn nights happy
I miss our cheap chandelier‘Member when dad hung it thereAnd we would watch Rocky IVThe one where the Russian scoredI loved Brigitte Nielsen's hair
I'd call you my championThought we had already wonAnd cracked open out last beerFalling asleep in our tearsThose Brooklyn nights set us free
It's not that I don't wanna love youIt's not that I'm really over it, you knowIt's just that I can't watch us bleed to deathWhen we used to beBrooklyn nights happy
I found an old pair ofKeys in my purse that openedThe walkup we sharedHow did they get there, jerkI wanna see you thereI wanna make it work
I didn't brush my hairAnd my lashes are fallingOff of 7 yearsOf out bad luck datingI want one last night thereA Brooklyn night affair
It's not that I don't wanna love youIt's not that I'm really over it, you knowIt's just that I can't watch us bleed to deathWhen we used to beBrooklyn nights happy
It's not that I don't wanna love you‘Cuz I really tried, andI just wanna hang with the old youFor just one Brooklyn night, adieu
Have a drink with your former selfWe both won't act like someone elseMaybe then we'd both tell the truthFor just one Brooklyn night, adieu
