Today pain became a real life's hurtin' thing And the choir of loneliness sang me a song Now I know just what it means to lose a lifetime dreams Cause today I can feel it touching home No longer do I wonder why men have lost their minds And wind up in a jungle of flashing neon signs Now I know just how long a man can last when love is gone Cause today I can feel it touching home [ steel ] No longer do I wonder why... Yes today I can feel it touching home
