All those empty nights away
It's the place I couldn't wait to be
But it's not my home anymore
I won't be walking through that door again
Nameless people on the train
With our umbrella's soaked in rain and snow
Countless hours I had shared
With folks whose faces I won't stare at again
No place stays home for long
Always changing moving on
Even the place I was at dawn
I left my blankets and crayons
But I know I'll find it when I'm gone
Hazy glow of city lights
And cars out driving late at night
I trade it for the quiet life, a quiet house a quiet wife
It's home for now
