I Am ... I Said (Live (1972 Greek Theater)) - Neil Diamond
I need I want I care
I weap I ache I am I sat I am

L.A.'s fine the sun shines
most the time
And the feeling is 'laid back
Palm trees grow and rents are low
But you know 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 of the changes
If you talk about me
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
Leavin' me lonely still
no no no no no no
no no no no
