VERSE:
   EmThere's a sCtory of a young mGan
Who was tDaken frCom his hEmome.
He missed his sCister become a Gwoman
And his fDather grCowing oEmld.
From the dCistance he watched his mGother,
Mourn a lDoss, aCll alEmone.
And when he thCinks about his Gbrother,
He can't sDeem to fAmind the pEmhone.
CHORUS:
FCrom the wEmindow of his lDife
He can see his hCome.
As he passes Emby he feels a pDain no one knCows.
Past every better jEmudgement,
He packs his thDings to run aCway.
Like an Emocean distances a beDast
That can't be tCamed
WCooh-oGh, wooh-Emoh , wooh-Doh
He left you behCind!
CWooh-Goh, wooh-Emoh , wooh-Doh
He left you behEmind!
BREAK:
Now the yCoung man roams the gGlobe
Searching for the vDery thing he left at hEmome.
He searched fCar and wide, under Gevery stone,
The more he wDalked the more he was alEmone.
This young Cman is a lot like Gme,
Except he learned from tDhose mistakes he Emmade.
If I don't slCow down I might brGeak
I'll be trapped forDever in this cGage

CHORUS:
 CFrom the Emwindow of my lDife
I can see hCome.
As it passes Emby I feel a pDain no one knCows.
Past every better jEmudgement
I pack my thDings to run awCay.
Like an Emocean distances a bDeast
That can't be tCamed

I'll be trapped forever in this cage
