I'm the one who rolls
I'm your roling stone
Leaving you 1000 miles from home

I'm out in the cold
Waiting to get home
thinking 'bout you when I'm on the road

I just waste away
Counting down the days
It might be sunny but the
Sky is always grey

And it's never getting easy
And it never seems fair
Why can't you be here beside me

Why am I
Always away
(I'm tired of all this waiting
I just wanna get back home)

I'm in and out of your life
I disappear in the night
When you call out I'm long gone
I think that you'd agree
You've seen the back of me
More times than you
Would like to know

And it's never getting easy
And it never seems fair
Why can't you be here beside me

Why am I
Always away
(I'm tired of all this waiting
I just wanna get back home)

When I'm all alone
Far away from home
When I'm all alone
Waiting to get home
All I think about
Is putting my head down
Going town to town
Getting in the road
That leads me back home

I'm always away
I'm always away
I'm always away
Goddamn always away
I'm always away
I'm always away
I'm always away
Goddamn always away
