That's Not Home

Maybe tomorrow, I won't go home

Maybe she won't even care

At seven, she'll throw a kiss towards the door

And smile at my empty chair

For there's nothing there for a man to cling to

Nothing to pull me back home

Only a girl that's a stranger to me

Breathing on flames that are gone

Home isn't where I hang up my hat every night

And home isn't anything

Like cold arms holding me tight, that's not right

And home isn't some place to go

Just to feel all alone, that's not home

Maybe she might never see me again

Maybe that's the best way

I'll join myself to some south blowing wind

And leave her to find her own way

And maybe I'll find home someday
