[00:09.30]If I close my eyes
[00:13.38]I can almost hear my mother
[00:17.52]Callin', 'Neil, go find your brother
[00:21.45]Daddy's home, and it's time for supper
[00:24.72]Hurry on'
[00:25.23]And I see two boys
[00:25.56]Racin' up two flights of staircase
[00:37.11]Squirmin' into Papa's embrace
[00:41.37]And his whiskers warm on their face
[00:44.61]Where's it gone
[00:48.45]Oh, where's it gone
[00:53.34]Two floors above the butcher
[00:57.21]First door on the right
[01:00.93]Life filled to the brim
[01:02.94]As I stood by my window
[01:05.49]And I looked out of those
[01:06.63]Brooklyn roads
[01:15.45]I can still recall
[01:19.29]The smells of cookin' in the hallways
[01:20.97]Rubbers drying in the doorways
[01:27.48]And report cards I was always
[01:30.75]Afraid to show
[01:31.98]Mama'd come to school
[01:39.39]And as I'd sit there softly crying
[01:43.50]Teacher'd say, 'He's just not trying
[01:45.99]He's got a good head if he'd apply it'
[01:50.55]But you know yourself
[01:54.90]It's always somewhere else
[01:59.67]I built me a castle
[02:03.42]With dragons and kings
[02:07.47]And I'd ride off with them
[02:09.21]As I stood by my window
[02:11.70]And looked out on those
[02:12.93]Brooklyn roads
[02:39.21]Thought of going back
[02:43.05]But all I'd see are stranger's faces
[02:47.01]And all the scars that love erases
[02:50.91]But as my mind walks through thoses places
[02:54.21]I'm wonderin'
[02:55.41]What's come of them
[02:58.77]Does some other young boy
[03:07.05]Come home to my room
[03:11.04]Does he dream what I did
[03:12.78]As he stands by my window
[03:15.24]And looks out on those
[03:16.53]Brooklyn roads
