lyrics

WILDERNESS OF LIFE

Hanging round here in the lonely parts tonight
Missed the last ride, gone in the fading of the light
Either way, either way I will carry her tonight
because these memories hurt like the twisting of a knife

In the wilderness of dreams I can still hear her cry
Running to horizons that were far beyond the visible sight
She never knew she was the one bright star over my life
I wanted so bad just to tell her it would be alright...

In a small town, closed down hearts and minds they bond
No one understood the beauty in her song
Where kindness is a curse and the damaged are the wrong
We disappear into the mirror of the place we don't belong

In the wilderness of life I can barely find my way
Sliding down the face of a cliff soaked by the rains
Out of the blue I sometimes still recall her name
Somehow someway the enigma still remains...

No more tomorrows
or wasted yesterdays
Forget the sorrows
They're just a passing phase
When did the lightning
lose its darkened sky?
If I could do the right thing
I would never ever leave
and never ever say goodbye...
