Maybe I'm bound to wander
From one place to the next
Heaven knows whyBut in the wild blue yonder
Your star is fixed
In my skyJust another bar, at a cross roads
So far from home
But that's alright
Whenever I'm going down the dark road
I don't feel alone in the nightThere's a place in my heart
Though we're far apart
May you always know?
No matter how long since I saw you
I keep the flame there for you
Wherever I goThey're looking too close up in here
Pulling down the blinds
But they'll let you stay a while
And I'm going, in a whileNow I've got leave you, brother
So this round's mine
Just looking at you, anyhow
You can go on and have another
You wouldn't, call time
I'm gonna say my goodbye's nowThere's a place in my heart
Though we're far apart
May you always, know?
No matter how long since I saw you
I keep the flame there for you
Wherever I go
