From Balham To Brooklyn (BBC Scotland Session)

I'm on a plane heading to New York

To see my sister

I don't really know what I'm heading for

Buts that just like me

To leave my friends behind holding hands

At least holding hands in my eyes

And it's hard when you don't know why you're leaving

Yes it's so hard but there's three thousand miles

From Balham to Brooklyn

I remember the day she said to me

Take this magic marker and draw yourself a door

And through that door you can take yourself to a better place

A better place you've been longing for

And it's hard when you don't know why you're leaving

Yes it's so hard but there's three thousand miles

From Balham to Brooklyn

All day all night you try you try

But you don't really know where you're going

All day all night you try you try

But you don't really know where you are

And it's hard when you don't know why you're leaving

Yes it's so hard but there's three thousand miles
