It's not my final destination.
When the train comes by.
The more we're the same.
Had my job and I had my pride.
And it ripped a hole inside.
They took my house last summer.
Now I’m hungry, cold, and scared.
And I’m wondering, does anybody care?
When there’s no place like home.
The Strong, the Proud, the Few.
When my damaged soul returned.
When you’re out on your own.
Could help me make it through….
And your address is skid row?
When there’s no place like home….
Cozy just my baby and me.
I was happy as a man can be.
I couldn’t help but take him in.
To my new little four legged friend.
Somewhere it should not have been.
It kind o’ took me out of the zone.
And I’m left holdin’ the bone.
That ain’t how it’s supposed to be.
Baby, it’s the dog or me!
And she handed me my People Chow.
And I’m in the Doghouse now.
You gotta do it gracefully.
‘Cause this ain’t no democracy.
it’s been a doggone shame….
Livin' deep inside of me.
She gets me out'a every mess.
She leads me to the gold.
Never leaves me in the cold.
I wind up bein' truly blessed.
I gotta make a choice.
And I gotta turn it up.
You know I'm guaranteed success.
Will I ever find a harbor?
I don't see it on the chart.
Crystal clear and never muddy.
Never runs and never hides.
Could make me young again….
If I could only find something to believe?
Every time I close my eyes.
I wish that I could hear.
Sooner than I might wish it would be….
Will I finally feel like I am free?
Of a golden wedding band.
On a parallel road together.
Like I was back then.
‘Cause I know it’s true.
It’s time to let them go.
It knocked me to my knees.
It was all that it could be.
Stays alive inside of you….
It just happens that way.
Took it down the road with me.
I just left lying there.
There’s only shades of grey.
Tomorrow’s so far from my sight.
I don’t believe in Yesterday.
They pulled me through the fire.
They don’t mean nothin’ now.
It’s the healer of sadness.
So he can get on out o’ here.
‘Stead of shopping with her friends.
And sometimes it’s for real.
You can’t tell right from wrong.
Just what they’ve got to do.
Where the hero gets the girl.
I was in another world.
But this I truly swear.
And it was ME up there!
