Who's Crying When I'm Leaving?

One, two
One, two, three, four

There's a table where they know each other's names
Telling stories about their small town football games
They look happy, at least from my point of view
I'm a stranger at a table meant for two

I'm jealous of the birds, even they know where to go
Staring out windows, going places I don't know
No one's here to hold my hand if it all goes down
So would you say a little prayer for the man who's always out of town?

Who's crying when I'm leaving?
Who's happy when my boots touch down?
Does anybody think about me when I'm not around?
Hope I know it when I feel it
Is it crazy that it's all I want?
If home is where the heart is, tell me where my heart has gone
Gone

I've missed birthdays, couple weddings, and a funeral
And some first steps, I was told that they were beautiful
I'm ashamed, wanna crawl out my own skin
Been a no-show, brother, lover, son and friend

I'm jealous of the birds, even they know where to go
Staring out windows, going places I don't know
I don't know
No one's here to hold my hand if it all goes down
So would you say a little prayer for the man who's always out of town?

Who's crying when I'm leaving?
Who's happy when my boots touch down?
Does anybody think about me when I'm not around?
Hope I know it when I feel it
Is it crazy that it's all I want?
If home is where the heart is, tell me where my heart has gone
Gone

Ooh, ooh

There's a painting at a thrift store down the street
Of a garden, with a woman hanging sheets
So I bought it and I'll carry it around
Till I find my place to settle down
