Freedy Johnston There Goes A Brooklyn Girl
There goes a Brooklyn girl
There goes my baby
I just told her that's she's my number one
And she went ‘maybe'
She's always sayin'
That you're only what you become
Walking away the morning sun
When love is new
And she's off to some office I've never seen
And I'm tending bar and playing guitar
And getting by somehow in between
You know, livin' the dream
There goes a Brooklyn girl
There goes my baby
She just told me that she's the one
Who's gonna save me
She's always sayin'
That it's all already been done
Turning around at the corner and blowing me a kiss
Then she's off into the crowd
And I'm singing bye bye baby goodbye
And the city's waking up around me
As I'm walking back inside
You know it's hard to know
And it's hard to be the one who knows
But it's easy to say hello Brooklyn girl
When the sun is sitting low
So, how'd it go?
There goes a Brooklyn girl
There goes my baby
She's always sayin'
That the heart can never be won
It must be given
In the quiet of the night
When you hold the one you love tight
And the city's talking in its sleep
Through that window open just a little
You know it's hard to say
And how can you say what can't be said
When you're lying' there in bed and your Brooklyn girl
Just walked off in a dream
Know what I mean?
