lyrics

I took a train to Brooklyn
But Harlem was on my mind
I was moving slowly
I sure could use the time
To think about how you walked away
And how I never found the words to say

But I could write a book
I could write a poem
I could write a film
And I could write a song
But will I ever know
How to find some truth
To make your love come home

I woke up in D.C.
In somebody else's bed
I got out ran for miles
And started wondering
Will it all be revealed in time
Will you meet me at the finish line

Where I could write a book
I could write a poem
I could write a film
And I could write a song
But will I ever know
How to find some truth
To make your love come home
Whoa-oh

I could count all of the stars
Hoping that one will fall
A new constellation
Guide me to where you are

We can go out west again
Beneath those open skies
But we're tied to concrete
Trying to make something of our lives
Does the road ever wonder where it goes
Listen close and you'll find out what it knows

I could write a book
I could write a poem
I could write a film
And I could write a song
Will I ever know
How to find some truth
To make your love come home
