Waking up, I'm waking up
Sunny side up, can't be gloomy
Walk along strangers
And everybody smiles
, but all I'm thinking is
 
Why am I here? It's nice
I've seen all the trails and canyon parks
Why am I here? I touch the sky
But it's always lonely at the top
 
City of Angels, where everything's new
City of Angels, City of Angels, so sunny and blue
Let me be down low, let me be lost
Here to win the world, but I only want us
 
All the empty sidewalks
All the shiny toy cars with no room
And the boys they love to talk ‘bout what they do
It's cute, but all I'm thinking is
 
Why am I here? It's nice
I've seen all the trails and canyon parks
Why am I here? I touch the sky
But it's always lonely at the top
 
City of Angels, where everything's new
City of Angels, City of Angels, so sunny and blue
Let me be down low, let me be lost
Here to win the world, but I only want us
 
(Why are you here?)
Why
(Why are you here?)
I'm fine
 
City of Angels, where everything's new
City of Angels, City of Angels, so sunny and blue
Let me be down low, let me be lost
Here to win the world, but I only want us
