The Brooklyn Bridge
Discover Love's Journey Over the Brooklyn Bridge
Lyrics
Like the folks you meet on
Expressing similarity with the people encountered
Like to plant my feet on the Brooklyn Bridge
Desire to stand on the Brooklyn Bridge
What a lovely view from
Appreciation of the beautiful sight/view from the bridge
Heaven looks at you from the Brooklyn Bridge
Suggesting a heavenly or divine perspective when viewing from the Brooklyn Bridge
I love to listen to the wind through her strings
Enjoyment of the wind passing through the bridge's cables
The song that she sings for the town
Metaphorical reference to the sounds or 'song' created by the bridge
I love to look up at the clouds in her hair
Admiration of the clouds above the bridge, forming a visual metaphor of 'her hair'
She's learned to wear like a crown
Comparing the bridge's structure to a crown, indicating its majestic appearance
If you've been a rover
Addressing individuals who have traveled extensively
Journey's end lies over the Brooklyn Bridge
Suggesting the end of a journey being symbolically connected to the Brooklyn Bridge
Don't let no one tell you
Rejecting false claims about attempting to deceive by selling the Brooklyn Bridge
I've been tryin' to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge
Denial of any attempt to deceive or mislead regarding the sale of the Brooklyn Bridge
All the folks in Manhattan are sad
Depiction of sadness among the people in Manhattan, contrasting their longing for the Brooklyn Bridge
'Cause they look at her and wish they had
Expressing desire among Manhattan residents to possess the Brooklyn Bridge
The good old Brooklyn Bridge
Praising the significance and value of the Brooklyn Bridge
If you've been a rover
Reiteration of the earlier sentiment regarding travelers
Journey's end lies over the Brooklyn Bridge
Reinforcement of the idea that journey's end is somehow connected to the Brooklyn Bridge
Don't let no one tell you
Rejection of false claims about attempting to deceive by selling the Brooklyn Bridge
I've been tryin' to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge
Denial of any attempt to deceive or mislead regarding the sale of the Brooklyn Bridge
You'll miss her most when you roam
Emphasizing the sense of missing or longing for the bridge while away
'Cause you'll think of her and think of home
Associating thoughts of the Brooklyn Bridge with feelings of home
The good old Brooklyn Bridge
Praising the enduring significance and emotional connection with the Brooklyn Bridge
