lyrics

I'm stranded in a desert of picket fences
Watching the best years of my life decay
I'm movin' to that place they call Manhattan
I'm gonna find me a place to stay

Happiness will come any day now
The town I left behind is not my home
I can't wait to see all their faces
Yeah, they'll see how much I've grown

I'm only lonely in crowded places
No one really grows up anyway
I'm homesick for a place that don't exist

I can't go back the old way
So I'm leavin' that place they call Manhattan
And I'm gonna find me a new place to stay
