Now Here's A Picture Of Me, Writing You A Love Letter,

To Make Me Feel Better, 'cause I'm So Far From Home.

Now, It Seems Like Forever Since The Last Time I Saw You,

And I'd Sure Like To Call You 'cause I Feel So Alone.



Now, It's Another Cold City But The Same Old Hotel Room.

They All Look The Same To Me After A While.

A Bed And A Window Over Some Dirty Alley,

Looking On To The Streets Meeting Nobody's Smile.



Now Every Telephone Says, "Hold The Line",

Like The Preachers Did When I Was Just A Kid;

And It's Strange How It Still Touches Me After All This Time.

They Said, "Keep Your Light Shining Brightly".

And I Just Can't Take It Lightly; I'm Still Trying To Find It.



Now, Every Evening Brings Another Show,

To Empty Faces Screaming Over Too Much Beer.

And What They Find To Talk About I Guess I'll Never, Ever Know.

But I'm Leaving Tomorrow And I Don't Regret It.

Just One More Town And Then I Can Forget …



It's A Picture Of Me Writing You A Love Letter,

To Make Me Feel Better 'cause I've Been Feeling Low.

Hey, It Seems Like Forever Since The Last Time I Saw You,

But It Won't Be Much Longer, Now, Look Out, Honey,

You Know I'm Coming On Home!
