《Brooklyn Roads》歌词

[00:00:00] Brooklyn Roads - Neil Diamond

[00:00:10] If I close my eyes

[00:00:13] I can almost hear my mother

[00:00:17] Callin neil go find your brother

[00:00:22] Daddy's home

[00:00:22] And it's time for supper

[00:00:25] Hurry on

[00:00:29] And I see two boys

[00:00:33] Racin up two flights of staircase

[00:00:37] Squirmin into papas embrace

[00:00:41] And his whiskers warm on their face

[00:00:45] Where's it gone

[00:00:48] Oh where's it gone

[00:00:53] Two floors above the butcher

[00:00:57] First door on the right

[00:01:01] Life filled to the brim

[00:01:03] As I stood by my window

[00:01:05] And looked out on those

[00:01:10] Brooklyn roads

[00:01:15] I can still recall

[00:01:19] The smell of cookin in the hallways

[00:01:23] Rubber drying in the doorways

[00:01:27] And report cards I was always

[00:01:31] Afraid to show

[00:01:35] Mamad come to school

[00:01:39] And as I'd sit there softly crying

[00:01:43] Teacherd say hes just not trying

[00:01:47] He's got a good head

[00:01:48] If he'd apply it

[00:01:50] But you know yourself

[00:01:54] It's always somewhere else

[00:01:59] I built me a castle

[00:02:03] With dragons and kings

[00:02:07] And I'd ride off with them

[00:02:09] As I stood by my window

[00:02:11] And looked out on those

[00:02:16] Brooklyn roads

[00:02:39] Thought of going back

[00:02:43] But all I'd see are strangers faces

[00:02:47] And all the scars that love erases

[00:02:51] But as my mind walks

[00:02:52] Thru those places

[00:02:54] I'm wonderin

[00:02:58] What's come of them

[00:03:03] Does some other young boy

[00:03:07] Come home to my room

[00:03:11] Does he dream what I did

[00:03:12] As he stands by my window

[00:03:15] And looks out on those

[00:03:19] Brooklyn roads

[00:03:24] Brooklyn roads
