[Verse 1]
L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time
And the feeling is "lay back"
Palm trees grow and rents are low
But you know I keep thinkin' about
Making my way back
[Pre-Chorus 1]
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
[Chorus 1]
"I am"... I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
[Chorus 2]
"I am"... I cried
"I am"... said I
And I am lost and I can't
Even say why
[Post-Chorus]
Leavin' me lonely still
[Verse 2]
Did 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's the same one
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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 never cared
For the sound of being alone
[Chorus 1]
"I am"... I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
[Chorus 2]
"I am"... I cried
"I am"... said I
And I am lost and I can't
Even say why
[Outro]
"I am"... I said
"I am"... I cried
"I am!"
"I am"... I said
