Dennis Robleski - Permanent Home Lyrics

Kenny moved around a lot in his youth
From place to place and truth to truth
And even when he tried to put down roots
They didn't grab on any solid ground
But all the changing never got to him
He just wound up with phantom limbs
And that was pain he could quickly dim
Cause there's a brand new town ahead
He was always somewhere with anyone
Instead of anywhere with someone
He couldn't seem to find the perfect fit
Despite living all over the land
He didn't know or understand
It's not where you are, it's who you're with
See, Dallas was as cold as a mountain stream
Cheyenne didn't like his faded jeans
Madison tried to outlaw Jim Beam
And Charlotte cutoff his Friday nights
But after wandering years he wondered
If the heartache pushed him onward
Or if the problems he discovered
Were the places or the women or himself
He was always somewhere with anyone
Instead of anywhere with someone
He couldn't seem to find the perfect fit
Despite living all over the land
He didn't know or understand
It not where you are it's who you're with
Kenny may someday find a permanent home
If he learns when you rent that you don't own
He might be happy in a shack in Abilene
If he could just find the girl of his dreams yeah
He was always somewhere with anyone
Instead of anywhere with someone
He couldn't seem to find the perfect fit
Despite living all over the land
He didn't know or understand
It not where you are it's who you're with
It's not where you are, it's who you're with
