I found a letter in the mailbox today
It said thank you for your thoughts but I'm done
You said that I would never build this up right here
And I said that's why I can't work with you son
Well I can't let this go I'm on my way
But you can only hold my diamond ring
Well I go crawling back to the woman I love
She's already taken everything
Im goin' to Coney Island and have myself a dog
Reminisce why I still hate it here
It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes
It's so sweet now put your train in gear
Well I can't let this go I'm on my way
But you can only hold my diamond ring
Well I go crawling back to the woman I love
She's already taken everything
The ground is swallowing my options for release
And if it rains we might just disappear
I counted oh so many friends 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
Well I can't let this go I'm on my way
But you can only hold my diamond ring
Well I go crawling back to the city I love
Because its already taken everything
Well I can't let this go I'm on my way
Because you can only hold my diamond ring
Well I go crawling back to the woman I love
She's already taken everything
