《Cleopatra In Brooklyn》歌词

[00:00:00] Cleopatra in Brooklyn - Frank Turner

[00:00:01] Written By：Frank Turner

[00:00:15] Wake up every morning and feel out of place

[00:00:18] You put on your face

[00:00:20] Once more with resignation

[00:00:29] The world won't appreciate greatness today

[00:00:32] But there's bills to be paid

[00:00:34] So you stumble to the station

[00:00:43] You're wearing your most imperceptible frown

[00:00:46] These people are adjectives to your proper noun

[00:00:50] As you wander the streets of this phony old town

[00:00:53] It's wearing you down

[00:00:55] And yet there you are

[00:00:57] Like a dream in your favourite blue dress

[00:01:00] Your hair is a mess but nevertheless

[00:01:04] Cleopatra in Brooklyn

[00:01:25] You casually shed poetry like your clothes

[00:01:28] In neat little rows

[00:01:30] On the floor of my hotel room

[00:01:39] You never wanted to be a princess

[00:01:42] Said you'd accept less

[00:01:44] Holding court holed-up in your bedroom

[00:01:53] I'd say I was Antony begging at your door

[00:01:56] But I know that you'd laugh and just ask me what for

[00:02:00] Then you'd roll your eyes as I fell the floor

[00:02:03] To swear that I'm yours

[00:02:05] And yet there you are

[00:02:08] Like a dream in your favourite blue dress

[00:02:11] Your hair is a mess but nevertheless

[00:02:15] Cleopatra in Brooklyn

[00:02:29] You wait by the Brooklyn bridge for your king to return

[00:02:36] You wait by the Brooklyn bridge for your king to return

[00:02:43] You wait by the Brooklyn bridge for your king to return

[00:02:50] Then retire to your palace on Smith Street as the old rope burns

[00:02:56] And yet there you are

[00:02:58] Like a dream in your favourite blue dress

[00:03:02] Your hair is a mess but nevertheless

[00:03:06] Cleopatra in Brooklyn

[00:03:10] Yes there you are

[00:03:12] A glittering star

[00:03:14] You couldn't care less who you impress

[00:03:17] You're my thrift store princess

[00:03:20] Cleopatra in Brooklyn

[00:03:25] I'll come find you when your fortunes fail you

[00:03:32] I'll die with you when the gods desert you

[00:03:39] I'll come find you when your fortunes fail you

[00:03:46] I'll die with you when the gods desert you
