Tekst :
Sometimes I feel like a motherless childSometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long way from home
A long way from home
True believer
A long way from home
A long way from home
Tekst :
She was smiling in the sun at a sidestreet cafeShe had a love in her eyes an ease in her way
Like her soul was lit up, her heart rang like a bell
I ll never know her name but I remember her well
Chorus:
People you re passing on the street
They re the friends you may never meet
And everybody s paid the cost
Of a little sweet loss
In a downtown honky tonk, a kindly old gentleman
Sitting at a table alone, a picture of a dog in his hand
He wiped away a tear and I ll never know just why
What thought going through his head was enough to make him cry
Chorus
There s something going on forever in everything around
Connecting everyone, every sight and sound
I can see through a glass darkly but someday face to face
What do I hope to find by the end of this race
Looking out from a black and white picture that itself is fifty years old
Sitting at a desk in St Louis talking on the radio
A girl of twenty five, she hopes to realize her dreams
She and I are not so different, there s just some time and space between
Chorus
Tekst :
When I saw you I knew you were the oneI want to orbit you like you re the sun
But let me know before I come undone
Am I the one for you
I m like a puzzle with a missing piece
I got a car but didn t get the keys
And only you can set my mind at ease
So what am I to do
I have everything but the girl I want, it s sad but true
And everything but the love I need to make it through
And every time I look into your eyes, that s when I realize
Just how much I love you
Some say lady luck is on my side
And that my life has been an easy ride
But they don t know how many times I cried
Cause I am nothing without you
I have everything but the girl I want, it s sad but true
And everything but the love I need to make it through
And everytime I look into your eyes, that s when I realize
Just how much I love you
I don t know how long I can keep it up
I need a sign to make it through
You gotta tell me now, you gotta let me know
So what am I, what am I to do
