I Know Where I'm Bound

everyone came up to me
telling me you’re beautiful
I guess they thought that I should know
but there are some things that could’ve been better
instead of would you might just let her
you know you could be white as snow
why should I explain to you
where I’m from or what I do
I think I know where I’m bound
why should I explain to you
where I’m from or what I do
I don’t need no one to say what
or to say where or to say how
best ship on the geese today
wish I had a place to stay
the morning after, so alone
but I know something that you don’t
it’s in my blood and in my bones
i want to give it all away
why should I explain to you
where I’m from or what I do
I don’t need no one to say what
or to say where
why should I explain to you
where I’m from or what I do
I think I know where I’m bound
where I’m bound
oh and why can’t you see
I was born so far away
I’m on my way to get home
please let me go
where the holy lights are shining
I want to give myself away
will you listen to my voice
will you take me in your heart
will you say that I’m your favourite boy
will you listen to my voice
will you take me in my heart
if you would do so I will only,
only ever sing for you
