In Brooklyn
In Brooklyn I was married
To a lady who changed something every day We wake up in summer sun, We are drowned at the end of the day We sleep in and we read everything, We keep details, we forget endings In Brooklyn we spend too much, we stay out so late Talk and sip till waiters glare, talk Terebithia We sleep in and we read everything, We keep details, we forget endings I went on a date with a beautiful man He had a bad plan for his first book I could smell all the women who'd forgiven him Cuz of the way he looks I took him home… I took him home… We watch movies on the big screen, We make angels in the grass We spend and forget what we're buying, We have brunch in Prospect Heights We sleep in and we read everything, We keep details, we forget endings In Brooklyn I was married We change something every day Details continuing We add a page… We add a page… |
