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.
