D-DU-UDU
Little  boy, 6 years old
 A little too used to bein'  alone
Another  new mom and dad, another school
 Another house that'll never  be home
When  people ask him
how  he likes this place
 He looks up  and says with a  smile upon his face
 This is my temporary home
 It's not where I belong
 Windows and rooms  that I'm  passin' through
 This is just a stop,  on the way to where I'm going
 I'm not afraid  because  I know
 this is my
 temporary  home.
Young  mom on her own
 She needs a little help got nowhere  to go.
 She's lookin'  for a job, lookin' for a way out
 Because a half-way house will never  be a home
 At night  she whispers
to  her baby girl:
 Someday  we'll find a
place  here in this world
 This is our temporary home
 It's not where we belong
 Windows and rooms  that we're  passin' through
 This is just a stop,  on the way to where we're going
 I'm not afraid  because  I know
 this is our
 temporary  home.
Old  man, hospital bed
 The room is filled with people  he loves
 And he whispers don't cry  for me
 I'll see  you all someday
 He looks up  and says "I  can see God's face."
 This is my temporary home
 It's not where I belong
 Windows and rooms  that I'm  passin' through
 This is just a stop,  on the way to where I'm going
 I'm not afraid  because  I know
 this is my
 temporary  home
This  is our temporary  home.
