It all went down on a Saturday
Told me to go with you and just get away
God, I wish that I wasn't so stupid
But yet I bought my flight and flew straight to him
It all seemed too perfect to be true
Didn't have much time to think it through
And now you're showing me around like you know me
Making me wonder everything that we could be
Yeah we were just two kids alone in Brooklyn
And for the first time in my life it seemed like we were
Living a scene out of a teenage romance
And we're about to reach the climax
Cuz now we're walking to your place in Brooklyn
When you finally kissed my lips and it seemed like
This was meant to happen all long
But then again this was right before it all went wrong
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Damn
I wish I'd never gone to Brooklyn
And then came the part when we were dancing
Barefoot in your New York apartment
Just like I imagined it to be
If only
It hadn't been too perfect to be true
Hadn't been caught up with the city views
Maybe then I would've seen
It never was gonna lead
To what I wanted to believe that you and I'd be
Yeah we were just two kids alone in Brooklyn
Acting reckless cuz we're young and we're dumb and
Never cared about the consequences
We never even learn our lesson
Because remember that night in Brooklyn
When we were fighting till 3 am cuz I wanted
This to be forever and you said "just for now"
Had nothing left to say so I sighed and said "wow"
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Damn
Why'd I ever go to Brooklyn
To all the make believe
The city of dreams and deceit
Caught up with all the vanity
Fell for your words drowned in the scenery
Cuz all the perfect trees so evergreen
Were just smoky air and nicotine
And the streets we walked as lovers
Will now be walked by us as strangers
And then there I was alone in Brooklyn
Looking back at the mess we made
And I wondered
Maybe he could love me but with time?
So I did the only thing I could
And left
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh,
Damn
I'll never go back to Brooklyn
