City Skies

The Torn Days of Winter

Swallows

Gone Away

'Till I Get Home

Better Days

The Winter of '85

White Horses

Lost Sight of the Way

 

 
Lost Sight of the Way

 

words and music: John Lambert

somewhere in the darkness
between the dusk and the dawn
i lost sight of the way
and somewhere in these sodium lights
in this city of dreams
i lost sight of the day

as the sun
sets across the sky
and the west turns to fire
i look back and i remember
i remember my home
and the road that lead from there to here
lying littered with dreams
dreams like leaves
blowing gently
on the breeze

somewhere in the darkness
between the dusk and the dawn
i lost sight of the way
and somewhere in these sodium lights
in this city of dreams
i lost sight of the day

hey and jesus
you can't help me
i'm lost and i'm alone
wandering aimless
wandering sad
in this town of cold grey stone
and i wish give me back ten years
that i'd find
find my way home

somewhere in the darkness
between the dusk and the dawn
i lost sight of the way
and somewhere in these sodium lights
in this city of dreams
i lost sight of the day
