Standin' here on this old familiar porch, I know this welcome mat ain't meant for me. I can't believe you even opened up the door: You always were much too kind to me. I don't know how I wound up here, I was nowhere in the neighborhood. In this house on this street, We had a chance to live a dream: I'd go back and get it right if I could. 'Cause I was here but I was gone: How could I get so much so wrong? Now I know a home is more than bricks an' wood. There's so much of love I thought I understood, But I was nowhere in the neighborhood. I had everything a man could ever want, But still I was not satisfied. A fool would drink from some forbidden cup, Until he's drunk on his own lies. Yeah, I believed I could live two lives: I was nowhere in the neighborhood.
