lyrics

I was a child I was seventeen
But I thought that I knew everything

And New York City was my holy land
The gritty sidewalks were the whitest sand

Of milk and honey I knew only one
A secret number hidden underground

I got confused I thought that windows were stars
And the Empire State was lit up red like Mars

I don't know where we belong
but I do know where I long to be
Somewhere north, somewhere along
Where the ocean song can set me free

I met a girl who told me: Listen here,
Life may be short but it goes on for years

And if you spend it doing more with less
You just might find your happiness

[chorus]

See, I tried to live that city life
But all I saw was the city strife

So I’ve got to go now, I’ve got to leave
Trade in the subway for a lot of trees

[chorus]

So you can keep chasing that pot of gold
But come up empty, tired, sad and old

Or leave behind the madness and the gall
And live like you've already got it all

[chorus]
