I'm standin' at the doorway, my head down in my hands
Not knowin' where to sit, not knowin' where I stand
SOL DO SOLMy father looms above me, for him there is no rest
DO SOL REMy mother's arms enfold me and hold me to her breast
"They say you've been out wanderin', they say you've traveled far
DO SOL RESit down, young stranger and tell us who you are"
SOL DO SOLThe room has all gone misty, my thoughts are all in spin
"Sit down, young stranger and tell us where you been"
"Well, I've been up to the mountain, I've walked down by the sea
DO SOL REI never questioned no one and no one questioned me
SOL DO SOLMy love was given freely and oft-times was returned
I never came to borrow, I only came to learn
SOL DO SOLSometimes it did get lonely, but it taught me how to cry
DO SOL REAnd laughter came to easy for life to pass me by
I never had a dollar that I didn't earn with pride
DO SOL RE'Cause I had a million daydreams to keep me satisfied"
