And see nothing
I quietly wish I had it all
Or at least something
While the short waves
Sends chaos around us
I don't hear a thing
It's all so quiet in Brooklyn
If I had a fresh start
I'd probably fail
So I drink my coffee
And open the mail
Now I hope the cruel words
In your letter
Are baptized by my tears
I would try to make it all better
But it would take years
Cause while I've been feeding your ego
Mine's been wearing thin
It's all so quiet in Brooklyn
I'd get lost anywhere
As long as I'm found
I could be anyone in any town
Why is there no one to help me
Find my way through
Cause if there was someone to help me
Maybe I could help you
Seems everyone's already started
While I don't know where to begin
It's all so quiet
It's all so quiet
It's all so quiet in Brooklyn
I look in my crystal ball And see nothing I quietly wish I had it all Or at least something While the short waves Sends chaos around us I don't hear a thing It's all so quiet in Brooklyn If I had a fresh start I'd probably fail So I drink my coffee And open the mail Now I hope the cruel words In your letter Are baptized by my tears I would try to make it all better But it would take years Cause while I've been feeding your ego Mine's been wearing thin It's all so quiet in Brooklyn I'd get lost anywhere As long as I'm found I could be anyone in any town Why is there no one to help me Find my way through Cause if there was someone to help me Maybe I could help you Seems everyone's already started While I don't know where to begin It's all so quiet It's all so quiet It's all so quiet in Brooklyn Explain Request ×
