Story behind the song
I went to SUNY Purchase in Westchester New York.
Lyrics
It is twelve o'clock in the morning
I'm awake here at school
and you're out somewhere acting cool.
The Brooklyn Sea is burning with a smile.
Brooklyn please don't change without me.
It is four o'clock in the morning
I'm awake here at Purchase
and you're out somewhere getting happy
with someone named Lucas.
The Brooklyn Sea is burning with her smile.
Brooklyn please don't change without me.
It is havoc on the highway tonight
he's got two blankets unfolded with a message insight
for the wacky traffic reporter for the local news.
Brooklyn please don't change without me.
Dadumdumdadum Brooklyn please don’t change.
