Rodney Crowell - I Hardly Know How To Be Myself lyrics

Go out and hear a band at some club downtown Walk home in the rain and let it soak me down Smile and shuffle past all the faces at the door I hardly know how to be myself anymore I wonder where you are, do I exist for you That pain that never quits, ever gets you too I think about my life and what it's headed for I hardly know how to be myself anymore I know how to chase the night away Show no feelings by the light of the day I know how to keep it all intact Tears may fall but there's no holding back Time runs by me like a river cold It sends a shiver way down in my soul I see my past just like a mask I wore I hardly know how to be myself anymore I know how to face the night alone And keep my distance on the telephone I know how to get my crying done Tears may fall, but I don't show no one I go out and hear a band at some club on down the street I shake the hands of all the people that I meet I hope they find just what they're looking for I hardly know how to be myself anymore I hardly know how to be myself anymore I hardly know how to be myself
