I Am…I Said

L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time
The feeling is laid back
Palm trees grow and rent's so low
And don't you know, I keep thinking about it
Making my way back

Well, I'm New York City born and raised
And 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 a chair
"I am"... I cried
"I am"... said I
And I am lost and I can't even say why
Leaving 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
The story is the same one

But I've 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 being alone

"I am"... I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even a chair
"I am"... I cried
"I am"... said I
And I am lost and I can't even say why
Leaving me lonely, still
Leaving me lonely, still
(Lonely)
(Lonely)

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