Your smiles they don't come easy Like they used to come before The awkwardness and boredom Is scattered out across the floor I can feel your love waxin' and wanin' And a quick look in your eyes needs no explainin' I'm out on my own Livin' alone I'm an old reluctant gypsy I don't like campin' anymore And the dreams and disappointments
Scatter out across the floor I'm nervous on this train I feel it derailin' And I can read the letters that nobody's mailin' I'm out on my own Livin' alone yeah Somethin' deep inside of me Must have died some time ago I haven't called no place my home Since nineteen-ninety-four I'm out on my own
