A Week From Today - Blue Highway Lyrics
A Week From Today
Time is a funny thing you know
No matter where you are it comes and goes
I've lived my life one day at a time
Time is all I've had and all I know
Home is a state of mind it's said
Four walls and a roof inside your head
To some it might seem strange,
Now the warden says the state requires my bed
It's been fifty years since they sent me here
I had forty-nine more to go
But a week from today
They'll open this gate for good
And I'll have to walk away
But Lord knows I'd stay if I could
I won't last a day out there alone
This prison cell's the only home I've known
The world outside has changed,
but the one inside's the same
I'll have to find a way to get back home
