Nobody Home To Go Home To [There’s]

The neon lights are going out
The barmaid's half asleep
Soon they'll have to close the door
And put me on the street
About half as tight as I need to
Be to face this night alone
While others sleep in loving beds
And I'm just kicking stones

'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry

I see it in my foggy mind
The shutters and the doors
Where flowers bloom and love once
Grew a hundred years before
Where a girl I used to know
Made my life a song
Then the picture fades away and
All the world is wrong
'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry

Yes, tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry
