I Must Belong Somewhere

Leave the bright, blue door on the white-washed wall

Leave the death ledger under city hall

Leave the joyful air in that rubber ball today

Just leave the lilac print on the linen sheet

Leave the bird you killed at your father's feet

Let the sideways rain in the crooked street remain

Leave the whimpering dog in his cold kennel

Leave the dead starlet on her pedestal

Leave the acid kids in their green fishbowls today

Leave the sad guitar in its hard-shell case

Leave the worried look on your lover's face

Let the orange embers in the fireplace remain

'Cause everything, it must belong somewhere

A train, off in the distance, bicycle chained to the stairs

Everything, it must belong somewhere

I know that now, that's why I'm staying here

Leave the ocean's roar in that turquoise shell

Leave the widower in his private hell

Leave the liberty in that broken bell today

Just leave the epic poem on its yellowed page

Leave the gray macaw in his covered cage

Let the traveling band on the interstate remain

'Cause everything, it must belong somewhere

Sound-stage in California, televisions in Times Square, yeah

Everything, it must belong somewhere

I know that now, that's why I'm staying here

Oh, I know that now, that's why I'm staying here

Leave the secret talks on the trundle bed

Leave the garden tools in the rusted shed

Leave those bad ideas in your troubled head today

Just leave the restless ghost in his old hotel

Leave the homeless man, out in that cardboard cell

Let the painted horse on the carousel remain

'Cause everything, it must belong somewhere

Just like the gold around your finger or the silver in his hair

Yeah, everything must belong somewhere

And I know that now, that's why I'm staying here

Oh, I know that now, that's why I'm staying here

In truth, the forest hears each sound

Each blade of grass as it lies down

The world requires no audience

No witnesses, no witnesses

Leave the old town drunk on his wooden stool

Leave the autumn leaves in that swimming pool

Leave the poor, black child in his crumbling school today

Leave the novelist in his daydream tune

Leave the scientist in her Rubik's cube

Let the true genius in the padded room remain

Leave the horse's hair on the slanted bow

Leave the slot machines on the riverboat

Leave the cauliflower in the casserole today

Just leave the hot white-trash in their shopping malls

Leave the hawks of war in their capitals

Let the organs moan in the cathedral remain

'Cause everything, it must belong somewhere

They lock the devil in the basement, threw God up into the air

Yeah, everything must belong somewhere

You know it's true, I wish you'd leave me here

Now you know it's true, why don't you leave me here?
