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
