If I found myself in Brooklyn Might I see you on the street Laundry bag over your shoulder In a sundress with those sneakers on your feet Should I act like I don't know you? Should I stay out of your way? Or should I tell you how you helped my petals Open to the sun then walked away? And now I'm living like you taught me to And missing you through pictures that I saved How's your brain been treating you? Has the city been kind, too? Left your toolkit at my parents' house, and I still use it Is your hair still at your shoulders? Have you any new tattoos? Loved the tiger on your stomach Now each one I see just makes me think of you And I have misplaced my belief in shame Because you shattered my old point of view How's your brain been treating you? Has the city been kind too? Left your toolkit at my parents' house, and I still use it Are you still in that apartment? Is that girl still where your heart is? I will stop myself from searching for you, just how you wanted Brooklyn Lady, I've been missing you Oh-oh Brooklyn Lady, I've been missing you Oh-oh Brooklyn Lady, I've been missing you Brooklyn Lady, I've been missing you
