I Am...I Said (Classic Diamonds)

L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time And the feeling is "laid back" Palm trees grow and 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 D'you ever read about a frog Who dreamed of bein' 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 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 "I am," I said "I am," I cried And I am lost And I can't even say why Leavin' me lonely still I'm lonely still Oh yeah "I am," I said Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah "I am," I said
