Another new favorite song

Earlier this week a friend turned me on to Delta Spirit.
I gave them a listen and then had to purchase their album History from Below
For the last two days I've listened to the album on repeat constantly.
There are some great songs on it and I decided that one of my favorites was Bushwick Blues
Its got good lyrics and a pretty good video too
Check it out below.

Hold on to my hand
Never let go
Never let go

We were just two kids acting tough
Then we grew up
Me, not so much

All the other guys
that you've seen
Are nothing compared to me

Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak
After all

When we first met
We spoke so brief
When you sang a sonnet
I hummed sweet relief

Do you recall that night
we took the L
Out into Bushwick?
It was colder than hell

So maybe there
We should have stopped
Cause I'm left here
feeling like a cop

Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak
After all

To the other side
of the state's return
I met a young girl
Well I couldn't manage her

Because I think of you
In every girl I meet
It's no relief
That sounds to me just as sweet

So maybe I'm the fool for feeling used
But the way we kissed that night I thought you knew

Because my love is strong
And my heart is weak
After all
