Travelin' Light |
You’ve been standin' on the corner for a thousand nights |
Ifs the slowest corner known to man |
Watchin' strange faces passin' 'neath the lights |
With a bottle wavin' in your hand |
You got just enough money for some nothin' to go |
It ain’t exactly what you planned |
So lonesome that you can’t even say hello |
And no one seems to understand |
So you’re a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd |
The ones that only fit where they’re not allowed |
Out on the streets and you’re feelin' blue |
Travelin' light |
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
You wandered away from your childhood home |
Nobody cared to trace |
The tracks you laid |
You traveled by night |
And you traveled alone |
Came to rest at a penny arcade |
Well, the last shots over |
On a Saturday night You wake up in the beam |
Of a cop’s flashlight |
He asks you who you are as if you |
Knew or you cared |
He asks you where you live |
And you say nowhere |
So you’re a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd |
The ones that only fit where they’re not allowed |
Out on the streets and you’re feelin' blue |
Travelin' light |
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
I don’t know where I got it |
But, I got it the same |
It’s a feelin' that’ll rip you apart |
It follows me around |
Like a part of my name |
Like I’m born with a time bomb |
Instead of a heart |
So you’re a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd |
The ones that only fit where they’re not allowed |
Out on the streets and you’re feelin' blue |
Travelin' light |
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through |
