Brooklyn In The Summer

Lyrics

Remember we sat in the cold with no money in Montreal
 Underneath that waterfall, nobody else ever saw
 I packed up everything except those memories
 That only I can see and can't get rid of
 I still remember the first, your body hit every nerve
 Used to wake up in my shirt, that's the one I had to burn
 Trying not to stare, but you are everywhere
 You're everywhere that I've ever known
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been hiding half-awake for so long
 And it's the subtleties that only you've ever seen
 Bringing the mess of me back together
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been stumbling half-awake for so long
 Gotta forget that feeling, give in to something real
 I've got, I've gotta let you go
 Gotta let you go
 This morning I walked to the train, just like you did every day
 Everyone else is the same, I wonder if you're the same
 And do you lay your head in someone else's bed
 To help you bury it, just like you always did?
 And now you're in all of my words, the only way I can return
 Memories fade in reverse, but you will always be heard
 Wherever I can sing, you'll be right there with me
 In ghosts and melodies that only I can see
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been hiding half-awake for so long
 And it's the subtleties that only you've ever seen
 Bringing the mess of me back together
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been stumbling half-awake for so long
 Gotta forget that feeling, give in to something real
 I've got, I've gotta let you go
 But maybe I'm not really ready to give up you
 'Cause nobody ever mattered to me like you do
 'Cause you're so appealing, I caught that feeling
 And touched the ceiling, ooh, ooh
 I wish I could describe it, but words just ain't enough
 And nothing that I could say would ever measure up
 But what I can't stand is, you're outta my hands and
 I'm outta your plans, ooh, ooh
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been hiding half-awake for so long
 And it's the subtleties that only you've ever seen
 Bringing the mess of me back together
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
 Been stumbling half-awake for so long
 Gotta forget that feeling, give in to something real
 I've got, I've gotta let you go
