One, two One, two, three, four There's a table where they know each other's names Telling stories about their small town football games They look happy, at least from my point of view I'm a stranger at a table meant for two I'm jealous of the birds, even they know where to go Staring out windows, going places I don't know No one's here to hold my hand if it all goes down So would you say a little prayer for the man who's always out of town? Who's crying when I'm leaving? Who's happy when my boots touch down? Does anybody think about me when I'm not around? Hope I know it when I feel it Is it crazy that it's all I want? If home is where the heart is, tell me where my heart has gone Gone I've missed birthdays, couple weddings, and a funeral And some first steps, I was told that they were beautiful I'm ashamed, wanna crawl out my own skin Been a no-show, brother, lover, son and friend I'm jealous of the birds, even they know where to go Staring out windows, going places I don't know I don't know No one's here to hold my hand if it all goes down So would you say a little prayer for the man who's always out of town? Who's crying when I'm leaving? Who's happy when my boots touch down? Does anybody think about me when I'm not around? Hope I know it when I feel it Is it crazy that it's all I want? If home is where the heart is, tell me where my heart has gone Gone Ooh, ooh There's a painting at a thrift store down the street Of a garden, with a woman hanging sheets So I bought it and I'll carry it around Till I find my place to settle down
