I always wanted to see the lights of Broadway
I always wanted to hear the traffic roar
I always wanted to be a part of New York City's great big heart
And now I am - I couldn't ask for more
People like us, we get through the day
Surviving the city way better than most
We go through the motions, from nightcap to nightcap
Here but not here, with the heart of a ghost
People like us, we meet up some night
In a room full of strangers who call themselves friends
It feels like a dream but it's too hard to tell
Where the dream begins and the real world ends
And where, where do we belong?
We might ask ourselves
Where, where do we belong?
People like us, we take lovers like pills
Just hoping to cure what we know we can't fix
We'll lay in their arms and we'll say pretty things
We'll be there but not there, but we'll still get our kicks
People like us, we sure get our kicks
And we heal awful fast and we don't even scar
We are here but not here in a room full of friends
We could join in the fray or stay here where we are
And where, where do we belong?
Do we need to ask ourselves
Where, where do we belong?
People like us, damaged goods
Where?
We dance alone on a crowded floor
We weren't given much
And we don't expect much more
'More' is not a word we use
'More' would never be enough
People like us, we slip through the cracks
We'll never be famous, so who's gonna care
Nobody needs us and everyone's had us
We're here but not here, we've been there but not there
And where, where do we belong?
We only have ourselves
Where, where do we belong?
People like us
Lost and found
Where?
Where?
