Craig Owens - Big Apple Big Heart lyrics

I'm about to get on a plane to New York City
I'm about to leave this town that's
Left me feeling so empty
It's just me, and my guitar, and my words
Yeah, together we can take on this world
Now I've been dreaming 'bout this
Since I was young to get on that stage
I'll show them just where I'm from

And I'll show I'm only alright
When I'm up there
I'm only real when I'm up there

As I pack my things I
Check both my empty pockets
And there's still nothing there
No, there's still nothing there
I turn to my left I see my mother crying
She says to me "Why couldn't you have
Been a doctor or a lawyer?" i say "Come on
You know we've been through this before"
I turn and smile at her as
I walked out her door
