I Am... I Said

	Lyrics：Neil Diamond Music：Neil Diamond
	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
	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
	An 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
	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
	I you talk about me, the story's the same one
	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
	'I am,' I said
	To no one there
	An 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
