Sarasota Someone lyrics
by John Gallagher, Jr.
[Verse 1]
Waking up alone and reaching for the phone
I’m tired of living in a city where the winter's so cold
I wanna pack a bag, wanna hop a train
I got to get down south 'cause I got a pain
In the middle of my chest and it keeps me awake
And there's only one thing can make it go away
I got to get to the beach where I’ll be some man
For some dark haired girl with a headband and suntan
[Chorus]
Nobody in NYC gives a toss about me
Nobody can spare any love
No one here cares if I come or go
But I hope in someone in Sarasota does
[Verse 2]
Going to bed alone and I barely made it home
I'm tired of closing down the bars just so I'm not on my own
Sure, I made some friends
But tomorrow they are gonna crawl outta bed and not remember me
And I had a good life once, but it fell apart
If I could feel then, I'd tell you that I have a broken heart
But I'm number than a dead nerve, gunning around a sharp curve
I've got my thumbs to serve as an example
We all get what we deserve
[Chorus]
Nobody in NYC gives a toss about me
Nobody can spare any love
No one here cares if I come or go
But I hope in someone in Sarasota does
[Outro]
'Cause I've got a pack of Camel lights
And a lot of time to kill
And if you won't be my accomplice
Then I hope some in Sarasota will
