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 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
