Big City Dream

she was born with a silver spooning
house full of liver and gold
mom and daddy were always working
she was always lonely and cold

she ended up down in the mirror one day
not scared of the blood shot eyes
she knew it would cost her dearly
if stayed and just fantasized

and now she had enough of pretending
to be the kinda girl that parents wanted to be
she had enough of living a lie

And she said so long
she waved good byes to her home town
caught a man on greyhound
swarve she'd never return
she'd never return

so long to live to way expectation
to boring life without passion
she needed to be free
to live the big city dream
oooyeaahhh
to live the big city dream

Got off at the somerset junction
surprised by the festival crowd
she knew in her heart she moved on
that be the scared of the crowd

it was not about fortune nor fame
just something she did for self
to her it was just the same
she jumped off the carousel

The neon lights on the concrete
the angels of the city did callin her name
keep her awake in blessin the dream

And she said so long
she waved good byes to her home town
caught a man on greyhound
swarved she'd never return
she'd never return

so long to live to way expectation
to boring life without passion
she needed to be free
(to be free)

ended up job waitering tables
serving the whiskey and wine
turn on the chance returning the favor
cause some day the stars will align

And she said so long
she waved good byes to her home town
caught a man on greyhound
swarved she'd never return

And she said so long
she waved good byes to her home town
caught a man on greyhound
swarved she'd never return

so long to live the way expectation
to boring life without passion
she needed to be free
to live big city dream
