Where Do I Hang My Hat
Trying to figure out where I went wrong
And why must I face this world all alone
There was a time I felt I belong
There was a time I had a home
Now the inner child is all grown
Just a lonely old man wonders along
Trying to remember where I belong
Trying to remember the way back home
Time is of the essence for it won't be long
I must leave this world for the unknown
Will you share the knowledge I have shown
For it's my destiny to let it be known
Long after I am dead and gone
Will you let my words live on
For all the years of feeling alone
For the love that I have shown
Fear and anger is all that I've known
Desperately yearning for a mind of my own
Maybe the next life is where I belong
Can you hear them calling me home
My soul is at peace but my mind it still roams
Looking for the love I once known
Will you hold my heart while I am gone
While I find a place I belong
While I find a place to call home
