Fairfax, AK - Manhattan lyrics

I'm stranded in a desert of picket fences Watching the best years of my life decay I'm movin' to that place they call Manhattan I'm gonna find me a place to stay Happiness will come any day now The town I left behind is not my home I can't wait to see all their faces Yeah, they'll see how much I've grown I'm only lonely in crowded places No one really grows up anyway I'm homesick for a place that don't exist I can't go back the old way So I'm leavin' that place they call Manhattan And I'm gonna find me a new place to stay
