Brooklyn Roads (布鲁克林的道路) - Union Of Sound[00:00:00]
If I close my eyes[00:00:09]
I can almost hear my mother[00:00:13]
Calling Neil go find your brother[00:00:17]
Daddy's home and it's time for supper[00:00:21]
Hurry on[00:00:24]
And I see two boys[00:00:29]
Racing up two flights of staircase[00:00:33]
Squirming into papa's embrace[00:00:37]
And his whiskers warm on their face[00:00:41]
Where's it gone[00:00:44]
Oh where's it gone[00:00:48]
Two floors above the butcher[00:00:53]
First door on the right[00:00:57]
Life filled to the brim[00:01:01]
As I stood by my window[00:01:03]
And looked out on those[00:01:05]
Brooklyn roads[00:01:09]
I can still recall[00:01:15]
The smell of cooking in the hallways[00:01:19]
Rubbers drying in the doorways[00:01:23]
And report cards I was always[00:01:27]
Afraid to show[00:01:30]
Mama'd come to school[00:01:35]
And as I'd sit there softly crying[00:01:39]
Teacher'd say he's just not trying[00:01:43]
He's got a good head if he'd apply it[00:01:47]
But you know yourself[00:01:50]
It's always somewhere else[00:01:53]
I built me a castle[00:01:59]
With dragons and kings[00:02:03]
I'd ride off with them[00:02:07]
As I stood by my window[00:02:08]
And looked out on those[00:02:10]
Brooklyn roads[00:02:15]
Thought of going back[00:02:39]
But all I'd see are strangers' faces[00:02:42]
And all the scars that love erases[00:02:46]
But as my mind walks thru those places[00:02:50]
I'm wondering[00:02:54]
What's come of them[00:02:58]
Does some other young boy[00:03:03]
Come home to my room[00:03:06]
Does he dream what I did[00:03:10]
As he stands by my window[00:03:12]
And looks out on those[00:03:14]
Brooklyn roads[00:03:19]
