One verse sees the singer belt out: "Left to figure out what it's all about/ when the sun comes up and the sun goes down/ is there something more than it was before/ there's an open door/ what are you waiting for."

He explained: "When you're a kid and you have nothing else to do and nowhere else to go, living out of a suitcase is not only romantic but it's smart because you need to go out there and learn to work in front of audiences around the globe.

"That's how we cut our teeth. We weren't afraid of doing 240 shows in a tour in a year and then doing it again the next year... I have no desire to do that any longer.

"So these are much more civil ... I don't feel the need or the desire to live out of a suitcase as much."
