Brooklyn Window

Songtekst

[Verse 1] Hey, are you holding up Under all that steel and glass? Do the trains still shake your room When the evening slips past? You said the block feels farther Than it ever did before But your name still lights my phone Like you’re standing at the door [Pre-Chorus] And I keep seeing your face In every corner I turn Tell me, is it lonely Or just a lot to learn? [Chorus] Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window? Tell me, how you been? Do you still lean out slow? I’m a few miles away But I feel that pull, I know Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window? [Verse 2] I still wear that blue cap Even when the rain comes down And I buy your favorite bread At the corner off Canal There’s a postcard on my shelf With your crooked handwriting Says, “Don’t wait too long for me” Now that line keeps shining [Pre-Chorus] And I keep seeing your face In every crowded block Tell me, is it hard there Or just too much to stop? [Chorus] Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window? Tell me, how you been? Do you still lean out slow? I’m a few miles away But I feel that pull, I know Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window? [Bridge] If you get tired tonight Put your hand to the pane Count the buses rolling by I’ll be doing the same And if the whole world moves Too fast for you to hold Call me right back, darling I’m still on that road [Chorus] Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window? Tell me, how you been? Do you still lean out slow? I’m a few miles away But I feel that pull, I know Tell me, how you been? How’s the Brooklyn window?
