Nothing that I've ever seen
|
Now means much of anything
|
In traveling through...this part of you
|
And the Vietnam that I had dreamed
|
The place you wore your life 'fatigued'
|
I'm traveling through...this part of you
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Where are you amongst this madness
|
On the streets of Saigon?
|
Where were you in 1969?
|
When I was but a youth
|
Oh, here were you...
|
You were traveling through, this part of you
|
|
I'll make my way now on my own
|
Back to my home to live alone
|
I have traveled through this part of you
|
Yet, I will save this time and place
|
For the time when I can say
|
I traveled truth this part of you
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
You were an American boy
|
Whose innocence was lost here in the war
|
And I wear your scars
|
While traveling through this part of you
|
|
Nothing that I've ever seen
|
Now means much of anything
|
In traveling through...this part of you
|
And the Vietnam that I had dreamed
|
The place you wore your life 'fatigued'
|
I'm traveling through...this part of you
|
|
I'm traveling through... this part of you...
|
I'm traveling through... this part of you...
