If I close my eyes I can almost hear my mother sayin', "Neil, go find your brother, Daddy's home, and it's time for supper, Hurry on" And I see two boys, racin' up two flights of staircase, Squirmin' into Papa's embrace And his whiskey's warm on their face Where's it gone Oh, where's it gone
Two floors above the butcher, First door on the right, Life filled to the brim, As I stood by my window And I looked out of those...Brooklyn roads
I can still recall, The smells of cookin' in the hallways Rubbers drying in the doorways And report cards I was always Afraid to show Mama'd come to school And as I'd sit there softly cryin' Teacher'd say, "He's just not tryin' He's got a good head if he'd apply it" But you know yourself It's always somewhere else I built me a castle With dragons and kings And I'd ride off with them as I stood by my window and looked out on those...Brooklyn roads
Thought of going back But all I'd see are stranger's faces And all the scars that love erases And as my mind walks through those places I'm wonderin' What's become of them Does some other young boy Come home to my room Does he dream what I did as he stands by my window And looks out on those...Brooklyn roads
