Where I Have Been Lyrics

Everybody says 'Hey, I'm going to leave you

Nobody says 'Hey, I'm going to see you around'

They just run me out of town

And nobody says 'Hey, it's good to meet you

Nobody says "Hey, I'm going to keep you around'

They just run me out of town

And they try to throw me in with all the ugly things

They try to bring me down

And they'll try to take away my only happiness

This love that I have found

And nobody says 'Hey, what do you know'

Nobody says 'Hey, so sad to see you go'

They just send me down the road

But nobody told me that life was easy

Especially when everybody wants to see me go

They just send me down the road

And they'll try to tell you, girl, that I'm no good for you

I shouldn't be your man

And they'll try to take away our only happiness

But they don't understand

That I'd rather have you in my life

In whatever way I can

Even if it's just one summer night

As we're walking hand in hand

And I will hold you in my arms

And I will hold you in the dark

And I will hold you 'til the morning light

When we sorrowfully depart

And I don't know where I am going

But I know where I have been

And I will think of you and smile, my dear

As I walk along this lonely land

Everybody says 'Hey, I'm going to leave you

Nobody says 'Hey, I'm going to see you around'

They just run me out of town

And nobody says 'Hey, what do you know'

Nobody says 'Hey, so sad to see you go'

They just send me down the road

And they'll try to tell you, girl, that I'm no good for you

That I can't be your man

And they'll try to take away our only happiness

But they don't understand

That I'd rather have you in my life

In whatever way I can

Even if it's just one summer night

As we're walking hand in hand

And I will hold you in my arms

And I will hold you in my heart

And I will hold you 'til the morning light

When we tragically depart

And I don't know where I am going

But I know where I have been

And I will think of you and smile, my dear

As I walk along this lonely land
