letra de coney island - julie ragbeer

Loading...

i’m 19 years old
i don’t have anyone
i’ve seen you working and working
all of your life
i’ve done something really bad recently
but you defended me

i don’t know if i’ll be able to face my neighbors again
but i know you loved me when i couldn’t love myself
don’t know if i’ll get better
but thank you for taking me to coney island

i’m 20 now
can’t get rid of this sadness
so you take me to new york city
in a sight-seeing bus
we see all the places
and the bicycle ride that showed me not to give up

i don’t know if i’ll be able to face my neighbors again
but i know you loved me when i couldn’t love myself
don’t know if i’ll get better
but thank you for taking me to coney island

my mother takes care of my dad, me, and my three brothers
josh found someone to love and she loves him just as much
i come from an immigrant middle class family
and i thank you for all of your sacrifices

i recall the garage door open at night
that meant you came home
i should be off to bed but i take a glimpse
and it’s you
you tell me i should go to bed
but i want to be with you and have more time

now i know why i never saw you around, growing up
now i know why we never had those vacations
cause you worked too d-mn much to provide a roof over our heads

and i never got to thank you so i’m thanking you now
but thank you for giving me your skin color
and i didn’t really like it, but now i do
and thank you for taking me to coney island
with you
