Show Me The Way Back Home

I met a rag doll, with lovely eyes

Lookin so lost, and cast aside

Beggin spare change, beneath the shadows of a sunset street light

I dug down deep, into my pocket

A couple dollars, was all that I had.

She reached out like, it was treasure.

She looked so far away, when she said….

She said,

Show me the way back home

Cuz I've been out there runnin

For way too long

And all that I've learned

And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.

There's always another one, I need someone

To show me the way back home.

So many lost souls, along the line

It wasn't so long, that soul was mine.

Feeling forsaken, down on my knees

Needing some mercy, asking please

Show me the way back home

Cuz I've been out there runnin

For way too long

And all that I've learned

And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.

There's always another one, I need someone

To show me the way back home.

Oh yeah…

And all that I've learned

And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.

There's always another one, I need someone

Yeah, yeah, I need someone

To show me the way back home.

So many lost souls, along the line

It wasn't so long, that soul was mine.
