That's Where I Am
By 
Bruce Clifford
 Everybody has a story to tell 
But in this one she told me to go hell 
That's where I am 
 
Everybody has had to live with a broken heart 
But this time it has torn my world apart 
That's where I am 
 
I guess you've heard it all before 
So this should be no surprise 
I guess you knew this had to be 
Another faulty sunrise 
 
Now my eyes are tired 
My mind is weak 
All I ever want to do 
Is dream and sleep 
 
I'm not really sure what's keeping me alive 
One day I will find what's on the other side 
 
Everybody has a story to tell 
But in this one she told me to go hell 
That's where I am 
It must have been her plan 
 
I guess you've heard it all before 
So this should be no surprise 
I guess you knew this had to be 
Another faulty sunrise 
Blame it on me 
Or blame it on geography
