Dear Brooklyn

Dear Brooklyn

Written by Crag Jensen

I know- what I feel – no way to deny it

And I know it’s real - so why try to hide it.

Sometimes I feel I really get it

What my life’s all about

And other days I just want to forget it

I just wanna get out and lose my, lose my self in –

Brooklyn, sweet Brooklyn – I was lost but know I’m found.

In Brooklyn, dear Brooklyn – you gotta love this town.

It takes time to unwind when I finally get home

A little wine, sometimes, warms the chill in my bones.

Sometimes I get stuck in the middle –I  wanna scream, wanna shout.

Other times I get lost in a riddle and I just wanna get out and lose my, lose myself in –

Brooklyn, sweet Brooklyn – but watch the people, hear the sounds

In Brooklyn, dear S Brooklyn – picks   me up when I’m feelin’ down.

Yesterday I was all alone

When I got a call on my new cell phone

Hit the button and I said hello

Then heard a voice I that didn’t know

It was a lady from the bank with a French accent askin’ me ‘bout some money they’d lent.

Said sorry mam – it’s gonna take some time so step right up and stand in line

I said goodbye then clicked off the phone while headin’down the cobblestone

Breathed in the air and  took in view I had nothin’ say not much to do in –

Brooklyn, sweet Brooklyn – I was lost but know I’m found

In Brooklyn, dear Brooklyn – you gotta love this town.

Brooklyn, sweet Brooklyn – but watch the people, hear the sounds

In Brooklyn, dear S Brooklyn – picks   me up when I’m feelin’ down.
