I Am...I Said

I'm A Believer - Neil Diamond (尼爾·戴蒙德)

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

And 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

If 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

And 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

"I am" I said

"I am" I cried

"I am"
