I can remember the places I stayed   Things that I did, the ways I behaved   The women I loved, the words that I said   Like a dream passing through      Causes I had, the corners I turned   The friends that I left and the bridges I burned   They were part of a place, a rhythm of life   That no longer will do      Hey man, what about you?   Something has happened to me   Has it happened to you?   To my own heart, I've tried to be true   Hey man, what about you?      Winding my way through the turns and the bends   I have been waiting for life to begin   For something to do, something to hold   That was bigger than I      Whatever I did, it was never enough   Wherever I stood, I was still out of touch   Like a man in the dark   Following sparks through an ebony sky      Hey man, what about you?   Something has happened to me   Has it happened to you?   To my own heart, I've tried to be true   Hey man, what about you?      Well, like it or not, I have come to this place   The past in my heart, the wind in my face   And a son who was born on the eve of a war   Of a reckless design      With my knees to the earth and my ear to the ground   What I thought was the truth was only a sound   Of a shot in the wind, the beginning, my friend   Of these desperate times      Hey man, what about you?   Something has happened to me   Has it happened to you?   And to my own heart, I have tried to be true   Hey man, hey man, hey man, what about you?   Hey man, hey man, hey man, what about you?
