《Brooklyn Roads》歌词

[00:00:11] If I close my eyes

[00:00:15] I can almost hear my mother

[00:00:19] Callin neil go find your brother

[00:00:23] Daddys home and its time for supper

[00:00:27] Hurry on

[00:00:31] And I see two boys

[00:00:35] Racin up two flights of staircase

[00:00:39] Squirmin into papas embrace

[00:00:43] And his whiskers warm on their face

[00:00:47] Wheres it gone

[00:00:50] Oh wheres it gone

[00:00:55] Two floors above the butcher

[00:00:59] First door on the right

[00:01:03] Life filled to the brim

[00:01:05] As I stood by my window

[00:01:07] And looked out on those

[00:01:12] Brooklyn roads

[00:01:17] I can still recall

[00:01:21] The smell of cookin in the hallways

[00:01:25] Rubber drying in the doorways

[00:01:29] And report cards I was always

[00:01:33] Afraid to show

[00:01:37] Mamad come to school

[00:01:41] And as Id sit there softly crying

[00:01:46] Teacherd say hes just not trying

[00:01:49] Hes got a good head if hed apply it

[00:01:52] But you know yourself

[00:01:56] Its always somewhere else

[00:02:01] I built me a castle

[00:02:05] With dragons and kings

[00:02:09] And Id ride off with them

[00:02:11] As I stood by my window

[00:02:14] And looked out on those

[00:02:18] Brooklyn roads

[00:02:41] Thought of going back

[00:02:45] But all Id see are strangers faces

[00:02:49] And all the scars that love erases

[00:02:53] But as my mind walks thru those places

[00:02:56] Im wonderin

[00:03:00] Whats come of them

[00:03:05] Does some other young boy

[00:03:09] Come home to my room

[00:03:13] Does he dream what I did

[00:03:15] As he stands by my window

[00:03:17] And looks out on those

[00:03:22] Brooklyn roads
