Tekster: Nanci Griffith. 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

[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
I have traveled through this part of you
Yet, I will save this time and place
For the time when I can say
I traveled truth this part of you

[Chorus]

You were an American boy
Whose innocence was lost here in the war
And I 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

I'm traveling through... this part of you...
I'm traveling through... this part of you...
