Room Down the Hall April 2011

There’s a room down the hall
Where I go when I sleep
Wake early in the morning
From the noises on my street
There’s a desk and a chair
And a picture in a frame
All the rooms beside me
Look pretty much the same

But my life is so much bigger
That these four walls I can see
There’s a dream that’s got my name on it
And it’s waiting to break free

I once had a house
That had many rooms
It was too big for me to hold onto
Had a wife and two kids
Wasn’t ready when I did
They don’t look much like the picture that still sits beside my bed

But my life is so ……

Open windows let my spirit fly
Open doors lead to a world outside
Keep riding that big ferris wheel to where it takes me

Don’t have time for religion
You can save your prayers for me
No one ever gave me nothing
I wouldn’t take it any way
I go to work in the morning
Walk the streets until dark
Tell myself I’m looking for something
When I find it I’ll know what

But my life is so much bigger.....
