Intro:
                    (x4)



                  
    there s a fawn with brown eyes
                              
a broken hoof from brooklyn stars
          
a summer night
                          
   i dreamt i learned how not to speak,
                           
let go of words, let go of her
             
to let her be
                      
    there s a fawn in all my dreams,
                            
i guard the sun, i guard the moon
            
i don t need sleep


Interlude:
                         


                     
with my mouth i shake the leaves
                          
your eyes get wide, you want to leave
                  
when i write my clumsy heart
                               
will crack it s cage, shoot stars apart


Interlude:
                              


                                 
last night i tore through the cupboards
                   
the medicine already gone
                        
i stumbled past the discovery
                     
waiting and willing for dawn

                   
i believe i know what s right
                         
what comes into long brooklyn nights
                     
with belief the moon will rise,
                           
give to the shore then turn the tide


Interlude:
                              (x2)


                     
    there s a fawn of city trees,
                            
of sidewalk grass, she won t belong,
            
no not to me 
                  
    there s a fawn with brown eyes
                           
a broken hoof from brooklyn stars
          
a summer night
