The lights go down in Brooklyn
As she's walking out the door
Oh and they're lining up like soldiers
Going off to fight the war
And all the colors look like fireworks
In skies she knew before

And nights can't hide the days
That the tears roll down her face
Oh and the light hits those eyes, that she's dying to say
"Just take me away"

But the fog just sits like blankets
And it's drowning out the glow
You can hear voices loud and singing out
A song nobody knows
But to her it sounds like home

Oh cause nights can't hide the days
That the tears roll down her face
Oh and the light hits those eyes, that she's dying to say
"Just take me away, from all that I am
Just take me away, from all that I am"

Cause the fog just sits like blankets
And it smothers the glow, oh oh

Cause nights can't hide the days
Oh that the tears roll down her face
And the light hits those eyes, that she's dying to say
"Just take me away, from all that I am
Just take me away, from all that I am
Just take me away, from all that I am
Just take me away, from all that I am. "
