L.A.'s fine, the sun

shines most of the time
L.A.'s fine, the sun

shines most of the time
Palm trees grow

and rents are low

but you know I keep
thinkin' 'bout
Well I'm New York City
bom 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 about
a frog who dreamed
of being a king

And then became one?
Well except
for the names

And a few other changes

If you talk about me
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've never cared for

the sound of bein' 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
I am, I said

I am, I cried

I am
