Neil Diamond's, "I Am...I Said"
The Lyrics:
Well, I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores.
LA's fine, but it ain't home.
New York's home but it ain't mine no more.
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores.
LA's fine, but it ain't home.
New York's home but it ain't mine no more.
Why:
Refers to New York City, and to Los Angeles, California. If the Atlantic and Pacific shores of the U.S. also count as places, a reference to those could also be cited.
