Everywhere But Here
written by Kim Fontaine

well I’ve been everywhere but here
I’ve been off chasing my tail
there’s so many roads - and I can’t tell
which one is heaven - and which one is hell
these are the wonderings of a wandering self

well I’ve been everywhere but here
I’ve travelled from town to town
seen so many porch lights that I don’t even know
that these are the wanderings of a wondering soul

night after night - on the roads through Ontario
the blizzards in winter - the strangers and drifters
in watering holes - I know

well I’ve been everywhere but here
I’ve been off chasing my tail
been driving in circles - with nothing left to find
these are the wanderings of a wandering mind

la la la la la la la la
cause I am miles from you - and if you wanted me to
I’d come back and I’d never leave
but you are miles from me - and would you believe
I’ve got a ticket back home

don’t wanna be anywhere but here
don’t wanna be chasing my tail
there’s so many roads - but I know what to do
I’m taking this road - that takes me to you
I’m through with being a wandering fool
