|
Well, her momma named her Brooklyn |
|
Lord only knows why |
|
She's never been east of the Mississippi |
|
Raised here all her life |
|
Just a small town Texas girl |
|
Dreaming of the lights of New York City |
|
But if she can't ever get there |
|
Maybe someday her baby will |
|
Well, he never been to Texas |
|
But he knew down in his soul |
|
He was born to be a cowboy |
|
Riding in the rodeo |
|
So he named his boy Austin |
|
Plants a cactus in his Brownstone window sill |
|
But if he never gets west of Jersey |
|
Maybe someday Austin will |
|
Funny how much you can pour |
|
Your life, your soul, your dreams |
|
Into who you love, well, it takes all you got |
|
Gives back more than you can take |
|
Starts with a spark, burns through your heart |
|
Turns into a roaring flame |
|
And if you're willing to fuel the fire |
|
Forever you will never be the same |
|
Laid over in St. Louis |
|
Grounded by the snow |
|
At a Starbucks in the airport |
|
He said, "Where you trying to go?" |
|
She said, "Austin" |
|
He said, "What? Well, funny that's my name" |
|
She said, "Hi, my name is Brooklyn" |
|
And he knew things would never be the same |
|
Funny how much you can pour |
|
Your life, your soul, your dreams |
|
Into who you love, well, it takes all you got |
|
Gives back more than you can take |
|
Starts with a spark, burns through your heart |
|
Turns into a roaring flame |
|
And if you're willing to fuel the fire |
|
Forever you will never be the same |
|
Now you don't have to have a crazy name |
|
To see your dreams fulfilled |
|
Just ask Brooklyn and Austin |
|
They named her Jill |
|
Funny how much you can pour |
|
Your life, your soul, your dreams |
|
Into who you love, well, it takes all you got |
|
Gives back more than you can take |
|
Starts with a spark, burns through your heart |
|
Turns into a roaring flame |
|
And if you're willing to fuel the fire |
|
Forever you will never be the same |
|
Said, if you're willing to fuel the fire |
|
Forever you will never, never be the same |
|
Oh, never be the same |
|
No, no, no, never be the same |
|
Never be the same |
