Window Business - Bring It Home

I take a walk, maybe all day
I'm going nowhere in my hometown
They see me talking, now what do I say
There's no one, I walk alone
It's not this place, I was hard to love on Maui
But we got married, and changed my name
It's not the name that's a burden that you carry
I bring it home, it's not the same
I take a seat on a pretty bench
On the property of the Catholic Church
All our histories, all our prophecies
Yeah, I'm a sparrow on a perch
It's not this place, I was hard to love in Dallas
Cause you get jealous when I turn away
Not my way, imprisoned in some palace
You bring it home, I couldn't stay
So you're out there, and I'm out here
Presumably both of us alive
You got your somewhere, I got my nowhere
I hope that one of us can drive
It's not this place I was hard to love on Maui
But we got married, and I changed my name
It's not the name that's a burden that you carry
I bring it home, it's not the same
I take a walk, maybe all day
I'm going nowhere in my hometown
