Brooklyn

Spent all my money getting over you
Had to move away to somewhere new
Crossed that river and the park too
Far away as I could get from you

Looking for a place to land
You and I never stood a chance

And I've walked by this place a thousand times
And I can't remember what was yours and what was mine
You and I were never gonna last
And I don't know if I can go back
I guess Brooklyn is a thing of the past

I was spending all my weekends upstate
Doing anything I could to escape
I was getting beat down by the city pace
Still can't take that downtown train

I was busy trying to make plans
And you were busy not giving a damn

Well, I've walked by this place a thousand times
And I can't remember what was yours and what was mine
You and I were never gonna last
And I don't know if I can go back
I guess Brooklyn is a thing of the past

So, I'll wait and I'll hope
'Til I find a way to carry on alone
Everyday as I go
I'll just keep on moving forward 'til I know

That I can walk by your place a thousand times
And I won't need to care about what was yours and what was mine
You and I were never gonna last
And I'm getting used to that
I guess Brooklyn is a thing of the past
I guess Brooklyn is a thing of the past
I guess Brooklyn is a thing of the past
