Good Old War - Coney Island lyrics

rate me

I found a letter in the mailbox today <br>And I said, &quot;thank you for your thoughts, but I'm done.&quot; <br>I said that I would never build this up right here <br>And he said, &quot;that's why I can't work with you son.&quot; <br> <br>But I can't let this go I'm on my way <br>You can only hold my diamond ring <br>But I'll go crawling back to the city I love <br>Cause it's already taken everything <br> <br>I'm going to Coney Island have myself a dog <br>And reminisce why I still hate it here <br>It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes <br>It's so sweet, now put the train in gear <br> <br>But I can't let this go I'm on my way <br>You can only hold my diamond ring <br>But I'll go crawling back to the city I love <br>Cause it's already taken everything <br> <br>The ground is swallowing my options full release <br>And if it rains they might just disappear <br>I counted 27 birds up there today <br>I'm thinking that's why I still love it here <br>I'm thinking that's why I still love it here <br> <br>But I can't let this go I'm on my way <br>You can only hold my diamond ring <br>But I'll go crawling back to the city I love <br>Cause it's already taken everything <br>Cause it's already taken everything
