| Brooklyn, I’m calling to tell you I’m sorry
|
| I know that don’t mean much now
|
| Here we are and I was wrong
|
| And I know this is just a song
|
| I ain’t askin' for another go around
|
| I just thought maybe you’d forgive me somehow
|
| Andrea you said that I can’t connect
|
| You told me to look for Georgia
|
| And that’s what I did
|
| Honey you deserve a star, because that’s exactly what you are
|
| And I hope your new lover is true
|
| Because those sad eyes, they weren’t made for you
|
| And aww, sweet Tess, I wish you the best
|
| With your debutante and your suitors
|
| At the circus of your past
|
| Oh honey it was you to bring me my first tune
|
| And I thank you from the bottom of my heart
|
| Even though you were doomed from the start
|
| Yet of all my friends, you stick by me again
|
| And you say you’d ride this rusty train till it ends
|
| Yeah because I’ve been around the world
|
| Just singing love of girls
|
| Never once, did you call me a fool
|
| I hope some day, to make it up to you
|
| To my mother, to my father, to my sister back home
|
| And you know I want to tell you, of those things that I’ve done
|
| Oh and I’ve not forgotten
|
| Yes and I think about you often
|
| You say that you’re proud every step of the way
|
| And you know, it keeps me going these days
|
| Oh my Sally, I hold you so high
|
| I can’t find the words, though I’ve tried and tried
|
| Sometimes, you’re crazy
|
| And sometimes, you’ve saved me
|
| Wouldn’t have had it any other way
|
| And you know, it keeps me going, these days |
