The Drifter

The Drifter

Walk down that road
don't know where it's leading
looking for a painted arrow
on the ground...

Your back is sturdy
and your shoes are new
looking for somewhere where
no one knows you.

Step into a new town
you're just one more
unfamiliar face
and people walking by
bump your shoulders...

Not a memory 
to hold dear
no one knows your story here
you're just another stranger
passing by.

Chorus
Well it's a sweet,
bittersweet journey
when you don't know
exactly where to go...
But somewhere out there
there's a shadow
of a place
that will welcome you home,
welcome you home.

It can't be lonesome
if no one can really see you
and find something about you
they don't like...

But what about on one of
those dreary
cold and quiet nights
when you lay and dream of someone
by your side?

Chorus
It's a sweet,
bittersweet journey
when you don't know 
exactly where to go...
But somewhere 
out there there's a shadow
of a place
that will welcome you home...

Yes somewhere
out there
there's a shadow...
Of a place
that will 
welcome
you 
home.
