I turn left at the old hotel,
I know this boulevard much too well,
This used to be my way home
Someone finally complained enough
Wipe the tears back with a smile
Stop and look for a little while
the only thing missing is me
That's my dog in my backyard
And there's the window to the room
Where she laid her pretty head
I planted that tree out by the fence
Not long after we moved in
Who's that man running my life?
I pulled in not to cause a scene
They're not really expecting me
Those kids have been through hell
I hear they adjusted well
I turned around in a neighbor's drive
For I'd be hard just to recognize
It's just an old fixer -upper
Drive away just one more time
Lots of things going through my mind
Oh, the less things change
The more they seem the same
And there's my dog in my back yard
And there's a window to the room
Where she lays her pretty head
I planted that tree out by the fence
Not long after we moved in
And there's my dog in my backyard
And there's the window to the roof
Where she laid her pretty head
I planted that tree out by the fence
Not long after we moved in
Who's that man running my life?
Who's that man, running my life
