  • Try to understand
    I'm not your ordinary man, still I can't deny
    You go with me everywhere
    When I'm dreamin' you still share my lonely nights
    Try to see my side
    It's not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on
    It's that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun
    And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm
    And as I wander to the cities and the towns
    I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around
    And when the show is over, there's a holiday motel
    Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
    Try to comprehend
    I'm not your ordinary friend at the end of my life
    I would pray that I could be
    Returning to the shelter of your love
    Try to see my side
    It's not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on
    It's that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun
    And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm
    And as I wander to the cities and the towns
    I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around
    And when the show is over, there's a holiday motel
    Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
    Try to understand
    I'm not your ordinary man, still I can't deny
    You go with me everywhere
    Like a shadow in the gloom
    I remember all the good times
    There's a ghost in every room
