Brooklyn Roads (Live At Civic Auditorium / 1971) - Neil Diamond[00:00:00]

Written by：Neil Diamon[00:00:00]

If I close my eyes[00:00:13]

I can almost hear my mother[00:00:19]

Calling Neil go find your brother[00:00:24]

Daddy's home and it's time for supper[00:00:29]

Hurry on[00:00:33]

And I see two boys[00:00:40]

Racin' up two flights of staircase[00:00:45]

Squirmin' into papa's embrace[00:00:51]

And his whiskers warm on their face[00:00:56]

Where's it gone[00:01:01]

Where's it gone[00:01:06]

Two floors above the butcher[00:01:12]

First door on the right[00:01:18]

And life filled to the brim[00:01:22]

As I stood by my window[00:01:26]

And I looked out of those[00:01:28]

Brooklyn roads[00:01:34]

I can still recall[00:01:42]

The smells of cooking in the hallways[00:01:47]

Rubbers drying in the doorways[00:01:53]

And report cards I was always[00:01:58]

Afraid to show[00:02:01]

Mama'd come to school[00:02:08]

And as I'd sit there softly crying[00:02:14]

Teacher'd say he's just not trying[00:02:18]

He's got a good head if he'd apply it[00:02:24]

But you know yourself[00:02:28]

It's always somewhere else[00:02:34]

I built me a castle[00:02:39]

With dragons and kings[00:02:45]

And I'd ride off with them[00:02:50]

As I stood by my window[00:02:53]

And looked out on those[00:02:55]

Brooklyn roads[00:03:01]

Thought of going back[00:03:33]

But all I'd see are stranger's faces[00:03:39]

And all the scars that love erases[00:03:44]

But as my mind walks through thoses places[00:03:49]

I'm wondering[00:03:53]

What's come of them[00:03:59]

Does some other young boy[00:04:05]

Come home to my room[00:04:10]

Does he dream what I did[00:04:16]

As he stands by my window[00:04:18]

And looks out on those[00:04:21]

Brooklyn roads[00:04:26]

Brooklyn roads[00:04:33]
