Brooklyn Nights

[Verse 1] I always thought it was you You always thought it was me We always thought we were it Seemed like a real perfect fit Those Brooklyn nights set us free I always thought even though We were so young, we could grow Up in the end, it'd be us We'd take the F by the bus Where Brooklyn nights set us free [Chorus] It's not that I don't wanna love you (Wanna love you) It's not that I'm really over it, you know (You know) It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy [Verse 2] I missed our cheap chandelier 'Member when dad hung it there? And we would watch Rocky IV The one where the Russians scored? I love Briggite Nielsen's hair I'd call you my champion Thought we had already won And cracked open the last beer Falling asleep in our tears Those Brooklyn nights set us free [Chorus] It's not that I don't wanna love you (Wanna love you) It's not that I'm really over it, you know (You know) It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy [Bridge] I found an old pair of keys in my purse That opened the walk up we shared How did they get there, jerk? I wanna see you there, I wanna make it work (Make it work) I didn't brush my hair and my lashes are falling off Of seven years of our bad luck dating I want one last night there, a Brooklyn night affair A Brooklyn night affair [Chorus] It's not that I don't wanna love you (Wanna love you) It's not that I'm really over it, you know (You know) It's just that I can't watch us bleed to death When we used to be Brooklyn nights happy [Outro] It's not that I don't wanna love you 'cause I really tried and I Just wanna hang with the old you For just one Brooklyn night, adieu Have a drink with your former self We both won't act like someone else Maybe then we'll both tell the truth For just one Brooklyn night, adieu
