Bushwick Blues
Hold on to my hand
Never let go, never let go
We were just two kids acting tough
Then we grew up, me, not so much
All the other guys
That you've seen
Are nothing compared to me
Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak after all
When we first met
We spoke so brief
When you sang a sonnet
I hummed sweet relief
Do you recall that night
We took the L
Out into Bushwick?
It was colder than hell
So maybe there
We should have stopped
'Cause I'm left here
Feeling like a cop
Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak after all
To the other side
Of the state's return
I met a young girl
Well, I couldn't manage her
Because I think of you
In every girl I meet
It's no relief
That sounds to me just as sweet
So maybe I'm the fool
For feeling used
By the way we kissed that night
I though you knew
Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak after all
