Whatever you put in my hands is my life savings, my main man
I got a box fit for a king on Queens Street
(Tell me that's not irony)
Money can't buy happiness
Man, I think the opposite
If I had just one chance
I'd buy romance
[Chorus: ]
I want to know the things you're thinking
I want to be the place you are
Under the city lights, I'm sinking
Is anybody out there, anybody out there?
All alone in the strange city
Every other face is a blank to me
But I'm gone, gone, gone
And I'm lost in a sea of anonymity
Money can't buy happiness
Man, I think the opposite
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
I love the way the city turns
I'm yours today, I will be found
I can't stop laughing, I can't stop smiling
All the time
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
Is anybody out there, anybody out there? (Repeat)
I got a box fit for a king on Queens Street
(Tell me that's not irony)
Money can't buy happiness
Man, I think the opposite
If I had just one chance
I'd buy romance
[Chorus: ]
I want to know the things you're thinking
I want to be the place you are
Under the city lights, I'm sinking
Is anybody out there, anybody out there?
All alone in the strange city
Every other face is a blank to me
But I'm gone, gone, gone
And I'm lost in a sea of anonymity
Money can't buy happiness
Man, I think the opposite
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
I love the way the city turns
I'm yours today, I will be found
I can't stop laughing, I can't stop smiling
All the time
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
Is anybody out there, anybody out there? (Repeat)

I want to be the place you are"
isn't it "I want to know the things you're thinking"
im think it means that he wants this one girl instead of anyone or anything else "if i had just one chance i'd by romance" but everyone else only knows him because of his singing but they think they know him so well but he doesnt care what anyone else says and he feels noone is there except for knowing his fame
thats just my thoughts good song
All alone in the city...
Blank faces... (The manequins)
Queen Street is mentioned in the film I think
He wants romance, therefore he chatted up the manequin.
Is anybody out there? He waits at 12pm everyday for survivors.
He can't stop laughing or smiling, sign of losing sanity.
It could just be coincidences, but hey, the band could of been watching that movie while writing.

I'm drowning myself with sober thinking
