I found the 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 I can't let this go I'm on my way And you can only hold my diamond ring I go crawling back to the city I love Cause it's already taken everything I'm going to Coney Island , to 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 Chorus The ground is swallowing my options for release And if it rains they might just disappear I counted twenty seven 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
