I always thought it was you
|
You always thought it was me
|
We always thought we were it
|
Seemed like a real perfect fit
|
Those Brooklyn nights set us free
|
|
I always thought even though
|
We were so young, we could grow
|
Up in the end it'd be us
|
We'd take the F by the bus
|
Where Brooklyn nights set us free
|
|
It's not that I don't wanna love you (wanna love you)
|
It's not that I'm really over it, you know (you know)
|
It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death
|
When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy
|
|
I miss our cheap chandelier
|
Remember when dad hung it there?
|
And we would watch Rocky IV
|
The one where the Russian scored
|
I loved Brigitte Nielsen's hair
|
|
I'd call you my champion
|
Thought we had already won
|
And cracked open our last beer
|
Falling asleep in our tears
|
Those Brooklyn nights set us free (us free, us free, us free)
|
|
It's not that I don't wanna love you (wanna love you)
|
It's not that I'm really over it, you know (you know)
|
It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death
|
When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy (happy, happy, happy)
|
|
I found an old pair of
|
Keys in my purse that opened
|
The walkup we shared
|
How did they get there, jerk?
|
I wanna see you there
|
I wanna make it work (it work, it work, it work)
|
|
I didn't brush my hair
|
And my lashes are falling
|
Off of seven years
|
Of our bad luck dating
|
I want one last night there
|
A Brooklyn night affair (a Brooklyn night affair)
|
|
It's not that I don't wanna love you (wanna love you)
|
It's not that I'm really over it, you know (you know)
|
It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death
|
When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy
|
|
It's not that I don't want to love you
|
'Cause I really tried and I
|
Just wanna hang with the old you
|
For just one Brooklyn night adieu
|
|
Have a drink with your former self
|
We both won't act like someone else
|
Maybe then we'd both tell the truth
|
For just one Brooklyn night adieu
|
