Keep your arms open wide love,
cause Im coming home,
I dont know where I am but I dont care,
cause I know where Im going.
Im going where the voices,
In my head tell me to
Id walk a thousand crooked miles,
To try to get back to you

Chorus :
Well Im weary to the bone,
As I wake here alone,
With a pain that wont let me be
And theres a stranger in the mirror,
Staring back at me,
( oh lord, could it be, is that me ? )

These hands are shaking in the shadows,
Of the old morning sun
Thats dripping through the window pane,
Lord, this feeling is second to none

Repeat chorus

I can almost see your smile,
And I can almost hear your voice
Rising high up above,
The flat land of illinois

Repeat chorus
