Trouble in my Head

Melissa Ferrick


Got coffee on the table, yeah the coffee table
And the first smoke of the day
And now i am thinking that maybe
I'll think of something good to say
But my mind is traveling farther and farther away
Cuz the trouble in my head is getting closer and closer to my legs i gotta walk it out
And the trouble with my heart is that i can't take it out
And the trouble with myself is that i don't know me
Oh yeah so if you find me will you kindly show me the way home?

Cuz i have got birds on my roof you see, well that sing beautifully
And there is me in the living room and i am screaming to be free
And i have got clothes in my bedroom yeah and they fit me right
So now i am thinking that maybe i will get dressed up and go out tonight
Cuz the trouble in my head is getting closer and closer to my legs i gotta walk it out
And the trouble with my heart is that i can't rip it out
And the trouble with myself is that i don't know me
So yeah if you find me will you kindly show me the way home?

Cuz i am just tryin' to get home

And i know i've got a lot of time on my clock to spare
But not enough to make it from here to there
And if it is not where you're from but where you're at
Well what happens when you have forgotten that?
