Mark Adam Miller He Don't Belong Here lyrics

They push him down the hallway just pass the nurse's station
Into a room filled with strangers and they leave him sitting there
People lightin cigarettes up pouring coffee in paper cups
Playing checkers and dominos and a whole lotta solitaire

He don't say one word
How he got here he's not sure
Some saw it coming a long time ago
But what he does know
Is he don't belong here

His wife comes to visit him seems like almost every day
Reads him letters and get well cards, pushes his hair back off his face
She'll whisper "I need you back baby" at least a thousand times
He just stares out in the distance for something he can't find

CHORUS

Br: But at night his heart soars higher than an eagle

His spirit rides shotgun with stars across the sky
And his mind and body (are) so free
The way they used to be
He knows it's still down there deep inside


CH: Though he don't say one word
And how he got here he's not sure
And some saw it comin a long time ago
What he does know
Is he don't belong here

They push him down the hallway just pass the nurse's station
Into a room filled with family
and a whole lotta love in the air
