Coney Island

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
