| [00:11.73] |
If I close my eyes |
| [00:15.54] |
I can almost hear my mother |
| [00:18.22] |
|
| [00:19.65] |
Callin, neil, go find your brother |
| [00:22.27] |
|
| [00:23.77] |
Daddys home, and its time for supper |
| [00:27.14] |
Hurry on |
| [00:27.89] |
|
| [00:31.64] |
And I see two boys |
| [00:33.45] |
|
| [00:35.57] |
Racin up two flights of staircase |
| [00:38.77] |
|
| [00:39.50] |
Squirmin into papas embrace |
| [00:42.67] |
|
| [00:43.68] |
And his whiskers warm on their face |
| [00:47.05] |
Wheres it gone |
| [00:48.19] |
|
| [00:50.68] |
Oh, wheres it gone |
| [00:52.29] |
|
| [00:55.67] |
Two floors above the butcher |
| [00:57.67] |
|
| [00:59.48] |
First door on the right |
| [01:01.16] |
|
| [01:03.28] |
Life filled to the brim |
| [01:05.28] |
As I stood by my window |
| [01:07.90] |
And looked out on those |
| [01:10.76] |
|
| [01:12.20] |
Brooklyn roads |
| [01:14.41] |
|
| [01:17.78] |
I can still recall |
| [01:19.56] |
|
| [01:21.68] |
The smell of cookin in the hallways |
| [01:24.75] |
|
| [01:25.88] |
Rubber drying in the doorways |
| [01:28.67] |
|
| [01:29.81] |
And report cards I was always |
| [01:33.35] |
Afraid to show |
| [01:34.42] |
|
| [01:37.92] |
Mamad come to school |
| [01:39.59] |
|
| [01:41.59] |
And as Id sit there softly crying |
| [01:45.16] |
|
| [01:46.08] |
Teacherd say, hes just not trying |
| [01:48.70] |
|
| [01:49.84] |
Hes got a good head if hed apply it |
| [01:52.93] |
But you know yourself |
| [01:54.35] |
|
| [01:56.56] |
Its always somewhere else |
| [01:58.68] |
|
| [02:01.98] |
I built me a castle |
| [02:03.79] |
|
| [02:05.99] |
With dragons and kings |
| [02:07.60] |
|
| [02:09.98] |
And Id ride off with them |
| [02:11.79] |
As I stood by my window |
| [02:14.29] |
And looked out on those |
| [02:15.96] |
|
| [02:18.40] |
Brooklyn roads |
| [02:20.84] |
|
| [02:41.69] |
Thought of going back |
| [02:43.38] |
|
| [02:45.57] |
But all Id see are strangers faces |
| [02:48.35] |
|
| [02:49.55] |
And all the scars that love erases |
| [02:52.55] |
|
| [02:53.49] |
But as my mind walks thru those places |
| [02:56.55] |
Im wonderin |
| [02:58.11] |
|
| [03:00.73] |
Whats come of them |
| [03:02.16] |
|
| [03:05.91] |
Does some other young boy |
| [03:07.60] |
|
| [03:09.59] |
Come home to my room |
| [03:11.28] |
|
| [03:13.58] |
Does he dream what I did |
| [03:15.27] |
As he stands by my window |
| [03:17.67] |
And looks out on those |
| [03:19.93] |
|
| [03:22.13] |
Brooklyn roads |
| [03:24.70] |
|
