I found a letter in the mailbox today
|
And I said, "thank you for your thoughts, but I'm done."
|
I said that I would never build this up right here
|
And he said, "that's why I can't work with you son."
|
|
But I can't let this go I'm on my way
|
You can only hold my diamond ring
|
But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
|
Cause it's already taken everything
|
|
I'm going to Coney Island have myself a dog
|
And reminisce why I still hate it here
|
It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes
|
It's so sweet, now put the train in gear
|
|
But I can't let this go I'm on my way
|
You can only hold my diamond ring
|
But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
|
Cause it's already taken everything
|
|
The ground is swallowing my options full release
|
And if it rains they might just disappear
|
I counted 27 birds up there today
|
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
|
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
|
|
But I can't let this go I'm on my way
|
You can only hold my diamond ring
|
But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
|
Cause it's already taken everything
|
Cause it's already taken everything
|
