Intro:
(x4)
there s a fawn with brown eyes
a broken hoof from brooklyn stars
a summer night
i dreamt i learned how not to speak,
let go of words, let go of her
to let her be
there s a fawn in all my dreams,
i guard the sun, i guard the moon
i don t need sleep
Interlude:
with my mouth i shake the leaves
your eyes get wide, you want to leave
when i write my clumsy heart
will crack it s cage, shoot stars apart
Interlude:
last night i tore through the cupboards
the medicine already gone
i stumbled past the discovery
waiting and willing for dawn
i believe i know what s right
what comes into long brooklyn nights
with belief the moon will rise,
give to the shore then turn the tide
Interlude:
(x2)
there s a fawn of city trees,
of sidewalk grass, she won t belong,
no not to me
there s a fawn with brown eyes
a broken hoof from brooklyn stars
a summer night
