Off to my right a freight train engine's screamin'
to my left I hear a baby cry
To my devided soul they just add more confusion as
I walk out into the night
I had no reason for leaving except my mind oh my troubled mind
I walk through town out into the country freedom's
voice up ahead keeps calling me
Behind me in a cosy home true love is a waitin' but
I don't know where I want to be
I had no reson for leaving except my mind oh my troubled mind
I had a reason for staying a greater love I'll never find
[ guitar + trumpet ]Sometimes within I'm like a raging
river then again I'm like a peaceful shore

Footprints behind me are coming and a going
I've stopped and started back a hundred times or more
I had no reson for leaving except my mind oh my troubled mind
Stars up above are guiding my footsteps the moon lights
up a pathway to our home
I'm going back yet I may never be happy I couldn't
bear to leave her there alone
I had no reson for leaving...
