Time is driftin', this rock has got to roll, So I hit the road and made my getaway. Restless feeling, I really gotta hold, I started searching for a better way.
Chorus: And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night, But I couldn't see the light, no I couldn't see the light. I kept on lookin' for a way to take me through the night, But I couldn't get it right, no I couldn't get it right.
LA fever, made me feel alright, But I must admit it got the best of me. Gettin' down, so deep I nearly drowned, I can't get back to where I used to be.
Chorus
New York City, took me with the tide, I nearly died from hospitality, Left me stranded, and took away my pride, Just another know it?? of fatality.
