Brooklyn has a way to make you stay
Forget your pain, from where you came
It was just a dream, a place you'll seek
When you're not awake
When I was young, I was never wrong
I knew the way to the grave
Dixie’s done all she could do
Now she was through, and I was too
What I wouldn't do...
To be alone with her right now
And to be hurting too
It lets me know that I'm alive
It lets me know that she is too
it lets me know that I can be peacefully at home
Brooklyn has a way to lay a claim
On your soul, and she won't let go
And you don't want her too
There's nothing you wouldn't do
To make her stay one more day
To be alone with her right now
And to be hurting too
It lets me know that I'm alive
It lets me know that she is too
it lets me know that I can be peacefully at home
To be alone with her right now
and to be hurting too
It lets me know that I'm alive
It lets me know that she is too
it lets me know that I can be peacefully at home
