My Friends

We were drenched in the glow of an ATM
Talking about singing on bigger stages, for bigger wages soon
We were drinking well drinks in the back of the bar
Talking about one day how we'd all be big big stars

One day, we'll be on the Grammys
One day, we'll pay our rent
One day, we'll tell our kids about Brooklyn times
And no regrets

Cause we never let them tell us
"We were born to be small"
We never let them tell us
"The ground is where we belong"
So we keep on keeping on
And my friends, oh my friends, we're coming along
We're coming along

We were drenched in our twenty-somethings
Lifting each other to grab lights whenever we could
Playing music until 3am
Ignoring our day jobs as best as we could

So one day, we'll be on the Grammys
One day, we'll pay our rent
One day, we'll tell our kids about Brooklyn times
And no regrets

Cause we never let them tell us
"We were born to be small"
We never let them tell us
"The ground is where we belong"
So we keep on keeping on
And my friends, oh my friends, we're coming along
We're coming along

You and I can get to Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can make a Graceland
At the gate been waiting for you
You and I can walk through Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can be in Graceland
At the gate we've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you

We never let them tell us
"We were born to be small"
We never let them tell us
"The ground is where we belong"
So we keep on keeping on
And my friends, oh my friends, we're coming along
We're coming along

You and I can get to Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can make a Graceland
At the gate been waiting for you
You and I can walk through Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can be in Graceland
At the gate we've been waiting for you
You and I can get to Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can make a Graceland
At the gate been waiting for you
You and I can walk through Graceland
Over the bridge, in a minute or two
You and I can be in Graceland
At the gate we've been waiting for you
