"Brooklyn Nights" is a song written by Lady Gaga on September 18, 2010, when she was in Charlotte, North Carolina, for the Monster Ball.

Before she played You and I at the show, she said "I did write another song today while I was here in North Carolina", which she called "An impressive and interesting place" because of an "adult shop" she visited where "the pornography was staggering... Congratulations on your tripple-X stores!" So she "got really inspired" to write "A great song here.". The song for her ARTPOP album. She revealed the song title on September 20, 2013 via Twitter. The song was not included in the ARTPOP album, but Gaga confirmed the song would be availible through the ARTPOP app during a Twitter Q&A.
Lyrics
I always thought it was you,
You always thought it was me
We always thought we were it
Seemed like a real perfect fit
Those Brooklyn Nights set us free
I didn't brush my hair, and my eyelashes are falling.
Not that I don't love you, it's just...
