A young man torn between new experiences and a place he loved half a world away.
lyrics
How can I tell you who I am?
Why would you want to know?
Of course I dream that you might give a damn,
But if you feel the need, then go.
I’ve traveled far, I’m sure to some avail.
A richer man within my heart.
Jerusalem, your memory’s growing stale
Since time and space set us apart.
I walk, alone, through memories never past,
And many see me on my way.
Some stay, but briefly, some friendships seem to last.
They get me by from day to day.
I’ve traveled far, I’m sure to some avail.
A richer man within my heart.
Jerusalem, your memory’s growing stale
Since time and space set us apart.
I sleep my way through cold and restless nights.
In rueful times, I weep and moan.
The moment’s gone, and then I feel all right.
My life is here. This is my home.
I’ve traveled far, I’m sure to some avail.
A richer man within my heart.
Jerusalem, your memory’s growing stale
Since time and space set us apart.
