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
One foot in and one foot back
But it don't play to live like that
So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks
For never to return
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
Are you aware the shape Im in?
My hands they shake my head it spins
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
When at first i learned to speak
I used all my words to fight
With him and her and you and me
Aw but its just a waste of time
Yea its such a waste of time
That women she's got eyes that shine
Like a pair of stolen polished dimes
She asked to dance I said it's fine (aw it's fine)
I'll see you in the morning time
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
Are you aware the shape Im in?
My hands they shake my head it spins
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
Three words that became hard to say
I and love and you
What you are then I am today
Look at the things I do
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
Are you aware the shape Im in?
My hands they shake my head it spins
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
Dumb down and numbed by time and age
Your dreams they 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

About this song: I And Love And You
The title track for the new album, is a piano ballad soaked in folk flavor, crying "Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in." Makes sense, since the song was inspired by a gig at Brooklyn's Galapagos. "It was the coolest place we'd ever been, and the furthest from home we'd ever been in every sense," Scott Avett tells Spinner. "So the Brooklyn chorus kind of embodies the rest of the lyrics."
