Rider from Nowhere

[Verse 1]

This territory I have crossed don't even have a name

So while the stranger could get lost, but pretty just the same

I don't have much of anything; no home, no child or wife

I only own the open rain and what's left of my life

[Verse 2]

Can I buy a ticket with my solitude in a different past?

Write a happy ending to a story that might last

'Cause time is catchin' up with me and gainin' on me fast

And here I am with nothin' hidin' up my sleeve

[Chorus]

I'm a rider from nowhere

With no compass and no guide

I am carried by the wind, I'm a trade that has no end

With no partner by my side

Just a rider from nowhere

And no other man's concern

Just a shadow in the trees, shapeless fading by the grease

Past the point of no return

[Verse 3]

I can't reclaim a single breath of life or change a single spot

I can't devise some cheap disguise, be somethin' that I'm not

But still I just might save my life with one last chance lucky shot

So here I am, a drifter dreamin' in my tracks

[Chorus]

Just a rider from nowhere

I have ridden off the map

Or in a border you can draw, I am far beyond it all

Or the jaws of any track

Just a rider from nowhere

With a whole lot left to learn

And I'd like to be your friend, but I'm from nowhere like the wind

And to nowhere I'll return

And I'd like to be your friend, but I'm from nowhere like the wind

And to nowhere I'll return

And I wanna be your friend, but I'm from nowhere like the wind

And to nowhere I'll return
