v.1
I have walked many a mile
With barely a smile
For stranger or friend

I have spent too many words
On things you have heard
Again and again

(chorus 1 & 2)
And time is rolling by
Like a river running dry
Hope I find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man

v.2
I regret wars I have won
Lives I’ve undone
For what i could gain

I have wept many a tear
Livin’ in fear
I’d do it again

v.3
I’m so tired of goin’ nowhere
And endin’ up there
Afraid and alone

I have walked my last mile
Your song and your smile
Welcome me home

(chorus 3)
And time is standing by
Like a lazy summer night
I did find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man
