Blood is thicker than water
Friendship's stronger than fear
Love is God's favorite daughter
It's perfectly clear
I can see it tonight
in the comets faint light
as my heels hit pavement
wet from the night
Rain that's coming whispering down
on somebody else's town
A broken down dinner
with three people in it
Pulls my attention
for half a minute
I think about tryin' to talk
To explain why I'm takin' this walk
Why a simple motel room
can be some kind of hell room
It's making me get up and stalk this way
cause I don't want to say that
I'm down in
somebody else's town
I am stronger than this
I have been here before
I am no frekin' kid
in this first taste of war
With the loneliness drifting around here in
somebody else's town
Music spills out into the street
Must be someone in there I could meet
But I think I will telephone home
Hear that soft sleepy voice on the phone
Keep them awake by the sound of my talking
Tell the truths I found out walkin' in
somebody else's town
