Intro
Well I'm on a plane heading to New York
To see my sister I don't really know what I'm heading for
Well that's just like me to leave my friends behind holding hands
At least holding hands in my eyes
And it's hard, hard when you don't know why you're leaving
Listen its so, so hard but there's 3000 miles from Balham to Brooklyn
I remember the day that she said to me
You can take this magic marker and draw yourself a door
And through the door you can take yourself to a better place
A better place you've been longing for
And it's hard, hard when you don't know why you're leaving
Yes and its so, so hard but there's 3000 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, hard when you don't know just why you're leaving
Yes and its so, so hard but there's 3000 miles from Balham to Brooklyn
