L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time
And the feeling is 'lay back'
Palm trees grow, and the rents are low
But you know I keep thinkin' .bout
Making my way back
Well I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
L.A.'s fine, but it ain't home
New York's home, but it ain't mine no more
"I am," I said,To no one there
And no one heard at all not even the chair
"I am," I cried,"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
Did you ever read .bout a frog who dreamed
of bein' a king,and then became one
Well except for the names and a few other changes
when you talk about me, the story's the same one
But I got an emptiness deep inside
And I've tried, but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone
"I am," I said,To no one there
And no one heard at all not even the chair
"I am," I cried,"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
