Lyrics
I And Love And You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Load the car and write the note
grab your bag and grab your coat
tell ones that need to know
we are headed north
all one foot in and one foot back
but its okay, to live like that
so i cut the ties and i jumped the tracks
for never to return
Oh brooklyn brooklyn take me in
are you aware the shape im in
my hands they shake my head it spins
Oh brooklyn brooklyn take me in
when at first i learned to speak
i used all my words to fight
with him and her and you and me
oh its just a waste of time
its such a waste of time
that women shes got eyes that shine
like a pair of stolen polished dimes
she asked to dance i said its fine
ill see you in the morning time
brooklyn brooklyn take me in
are you aware the shape im in
my hands they shake my head it spins
brooklyn brooklyn take me in
three words that became hard to say
i and love and you
what you were then i am today
look at the things i do
Oh brooklyn brooklyn take me in
are you aware the shape im in
my hands they shake my head it spins
Oh brooklyn brooklyn take me in
dumbed down and numbed my time and age
you dreams to catch this world the cage
the highway sets the travelers stage
all exits look the same
three words that became hard to say
i and love and you
i and love and you
i and love and you
the highway
