Back In Brooklyn lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back in Brooklyn, for the night
It's easy and it's right
It's freezing and it's bright
It's everything I like

[Verse 2]
Back and broken in some ways
It's easier to stay
Half a world away
Forgetting every name

[Chorus]
I called you up
When I got back
Where have you been?
Don't ask me that

[Verse 3]
I'm casting off my half-empty shell
Through all that I've lost, now I know myself so well
The further away I walk, the more I'm a whisper
Listen for me now
You've got to listen for me now

[Verse 4]
Back in Brookdale, after dark
I know it's not my park
But can't you get up?
I need to find a spark
[Chorus]
I called you up
When I got back
Where have you been?
Don't ask me
