She got a job at a diner in the South Slope
It's a nice place in its own way
She had to move back to Queens
With her mom though
She takes the F train
It's a long way
Charlie's walking out
She knows that he'd be proud
She wakes up early in the morning for the F train
She's making her way
She's making her pay in the South Slope
It's a nice place
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
Carve out a space
Just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
Summer is so hot
Winter is so cold
On the F train to the South Slope
And most are people okay in their own way
It's a nice place
But it's a long way
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Carve out a space
Just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
She says, 'yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong'
Yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
She says, 'yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong'
Yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Carve out a space just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
