I and Love and You

 Load the car and write the note
Grab your bag and grab your coat
Tell the ones that need to know
We are headed north south


One foot in and one foot back
But it don't pay, to live like that
So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks
For never to return
























Ah Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake my head it spins
Ah Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in


 Three words that became hard to say
I and love and you
What you were then, I am today
Look at the things I do


 Ah Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake my head it spins
Ah Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in


Dumbed down and numbed by time and age
Your dreams to catch the world, the cage
The highway sets the travelers stage
All exits look the same

Three words that became hard to say
I and love and you
I and love and you
I and love and you 

This song by the Avett Brothers is all I can think of when I think of Brooklyn. It gets stuck in my head and Zach and I walk around singing it all day long. It is one we love and recommend the song and the band to any and all. 

Happy Friday everyone!
