Crying out for love The Southern Sojourner My Muse, My Bliss Building my own life The Western Warrior My blues, my kiss Fighting for our right Facing East from California My strength, my fist Welcome me home, welcome me home Settle me down in the mountain's mist I'm climbing a mountain, it must have been so high The evergreen, the somber seas My baby sees the part of me that needs this in my life I'm a phantom again, goodbye to my home again I'm a phantom again, goodbye to my home again I'm a phantom again, goodbye to my home again I'm a phantom again, goodbye to my home again
