Lyrics
Verse - Tried to beat the odds against me - with the worst hand in the deck
Learned to keep my cards close to my chest
Kicked the dust up, on the roadway - following the sunset west
Always traveling faster than the rest
Riding the rails of doubt - I left behind - part of me
Wasn't meant to be - and never found a place called home
Did somebody miss me?
Words I've said - the tears I've shed - life I've led
Love that waits for me
Someone to miss me when I'm gone
Verse - People have a way of thinking - that you're only what they see
So I shared what they believed of me
Felt the longing of desire - let it burn then set it free
Never wore my heart out on my sleeve
Riding the rails of doubt - I left behind - part of me
Wasn't meant to be - and never found a place called home
Did somebody miss me?
Words I've said - the tears I've shed - life I've led
Love that waits for me
Someone to miss me when I'm gone
BRIDGE - Time's been tapping me on the shoulder
And every last regret - I'll hide away
For now - and then
I will look within - at who I've been - part of me
Wasn't meant to be - and maybe find a place called home
With someone to miss me
Words I've said - the tears I've shed - life I've led
Love that waits for me
Someone to miss me when I'm gone.
