I And Love And You

Load the car and write the note

Grab your bag and grab your coat

Tell the ones that need to know we are headed North



One foot in and one foot back but it don't pay to live like that

So I cut the ties and I jump the tracks for never to return



Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

My hands they shake

My head it spins

Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in



When at first I learned to speak I used all my words to fight

With him and her and you and me

Ah

But it's just a waste of time

Yeah

It's such a waste of time



That woman

She's got eyes that shine like a pair of stolen

Polished dimes

She asked to dance

I said, "It's fine"

I see you in the morning time



Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

My hands they shake

My head it spins

Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in



Three words that became hard to say

"I" and "Love" and "You"

What you were then I am today

Look at the things I do



Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

My hands they shake

My head it spins

Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in



Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

Ah

My hands they shake

My head it spins

(Spins)

Ah

Brooklyn

Brooklyn take me in



Dumb

Down and numbed by time and age

Your dreams they catch the world

The cage

The highway sets the traveler's stage

All exits look the same



Three words that became hard to say

"I" and "Love" and "You"

"I" and "Love" and "You"

"I" and "Love" and "You"
