If I close my eyes[00:00:11]
I can almost hear my mother[00:00:15]
Callin neil go find your brother[00:00:19]
Daddys home and its time for supper[00:00:23]
Hurry on[00:00:27]
And I see two boys[00:00:31]
Racin up two flights of staircase[00:00:35]
Squirmin into papas embrace[00:00:39]
And his whiskers warm on their face[00:00:43]
Wheres it gone[00:00:47]
Oh wheres it gone[00:00:50]
Two floors above the butcher[00:00:55]
First door on the right[00:00:59]
Life filled to the brim[00:01:03]
As I stood by my window[00:01:05]
And looked out on those[00:01:07]
Brooklyn roads[00:01:12]
I can still recall[00:01:17]
The smell of cookin in the hallways[00:01:21]
Rubber drying in the doorways[00:01:25]
And report cards I was always[00:01:29]
Afraid to show[00:01:33]
Mamad come to school[00:01:37]
And as Id sit there softly crying[00:01:41]
Teacherd say hes just not trying[00:01:46]
Hes got a good head if hed apply it[00:01:49]
But you know yourself[00:01:52]
Its always somewhere else[00:01:56]
I built me a castle[00:02:01]
With dragons and kings[00:02:05]
And Id ride off with them[00:02:09]
As I stood by my window[00:02:11]
And looked out on those[00:02:14]
Brooklyn roads[00:02:18]
Thought of going back[00:02:41]
But all Id see are strangers faces[00:02:45]
And all the scars that love erases[00:02:49]
But as my mind walks thru those places[00:02:53]
I'm wonderin[00:02:56]
Whats come of them[00:03:00]
Does some other young boy[00:03:05]
Come home to my room[00:03:09]
Does he dream what I did[00:03:13]
As he stands by my window[00:03:15]
And looks out on those[00:03:17]
Brooklyn roads[00:03:22]
