Brooklyn Roads (布鲁克林的道路) (Live At Madison Square Garden / 2008) - Neil Diamond (尼尔·岱尔蒙德)[00:00:00]
Written by:Neil Diamon[00:00:02]
I close my eyes[00:01:46]
I can almost hear my mother[00:01:51]
Callin' Neil go find your brother[00:01:56]
Daddy's home and it's time for supper[00:02:02]
Hurry on[00:02:06]
And I see two boys[00:02:12]
Racin' up two flights of staircase[00:02:17]
Squirmin' into papa's embrace[00:02:23]
And his whiskers warm on their face[00:02:28]
Where's it gone[00:02:31]
Where's it gone[00:02:38]
Two floors above the butcher[00:02:43]
First door on the right[00:02:49]
And life filled to the brim[00:02:54]
As I stood by my window[00:02:56]
And looked out on those[00:02:59]
Brooklyn roads[00:03:05]
I can still recall[00:03:13]
The smells of cookin' in the hallways[00:03:18]
Rubbers drying in the doorways[00:03:23]
And report cards I was always[00:03:28]
Afraid to show[00:03:31]
Mama'd come to school[00:03:38]
And as I sit there softly crying[00:03:43]
Teacher say he's just not trying[00:03:49]
Got a good head if he'd apply it[00:03:54]
But you know yourself[00:03:58]
It's always somewhere else[00:04:03]
I built me a castle[00:04:09]
With dragons and kings[00:04:14]
And I'd ride off with them[00:04:19]
As I stood by my window[00:04:22]
And looked out on those[00:04:25]
Brooklyn roads[00:04:31]
Thought of going back[00:05:02]
But all I'd see are stranger's faces[00:05:07]
And all the scars that love erases[00:05:12]
But as my mind walks through those places[00:05:17]
I'm wonderin'[00:05:20]
What's come of them[00:05:26]
Does some other young boy[00:05:32]
Come home to my room[00:05:37]
Does he dream what I did[00:05:42]
As he stands by my window[00:05:45]
And looks out on those[00:05:48]
Brooklyn roads[00:05:53]
Brooklyn roads[00:05:59]
Brooklyn roads[00:06:04]
