Nothing that I've ever seen
Now means much of anything
In traveling through this part of you
And the Vietnam that I had dreamed
The place you wore your life 'fatigued'
I'm traveling through this part of you

Chorus:
Where are you amongst this madness
On the streets of Saigon
Where were you in 1969
When I was but a youth
Oh, here were you
You were traveling through this part of you

I'll make my way now on my own
Back to my home to live alone
Having traveled through this part of you
And I will save this time and place
For the time when I can say
I traveled truth in this part of you

(Repeat Chorus)

You were an American boy
Whose innocence was lost here in the war
And I'll wear your scars
While traveling through this part of you

Nothing that I've ever seen
Now means much of anything
In traveling through this part of you
And the Vietnam that I had dreamed
The place you wore your life fatigued
I'm traveling through this part of you
