THE PAPER RAINCOAT lyrics : "BROOKLYN BLURS"

I took the N Train in from the ocean
Up to 14th St. Union Square
I swam around with the bodies in motion

Drank in the people, then came up for air

And I am a breeze in the still August air

And I can't believe that I'm still standing here
I am a ghost to everyone I know
A star stands still above while Brooklyn blurs below


Between mistakes and new beginnings
This city swells up like a symphony

I disappear in those bodies of motion
And a comforting wave washes over me


I am a breeze in the still August air
And I can't believe that I'm still standing here
I am a ghost to everyone I know

A star stands still above while Brooklyn blurs below

Picture yourself riding under the freeway

It's 3 in the morning in the sodium sky
Don't be alarmed, it's only a feeling
No one can see us tonight


I am a breeze in the still August air
And I drop my knees with all this beauty here

And I am a ghost to everyone I know
And it feels so free
But it's so cold

It's so cold
When Brooklyn blurs below
