The Paper Raincoat
The Paper Raincoat - Brooklyn Blurs lyrics
Your rating:
I took the N Train in from the ocean Up to 14th St. Union Square I swam around with the bodies in motion Drank in the people, then came up for air And I am a breeze in the still August air And I can't believe that I'm still standing here I am a ghost to everyone I know A star stands still above while Brooklyn blurs below Between mistakes and new beginnings This city swells up like a symphony I disappear in those bodies of motion And a comforting wave washes over me I am a breeze in the still August air And I can't believe that I'm still standing here I am a ghost to everyone I know A star stands still above while Brooklyn blurs below Picture yourself riding under the freeway It's 3 in the morning in the sodium sky Don't be alarmed, it's only a feeling No one can see us tonight I am a breeze in the still August air And I drop to my knees with all this beauty here And I am a ghost to everyone I know And it feels so free But it's so cold It's so cold When Brooklyn blurs below
