Lyrics
Drifting down that lonely road I see my past slipping by
I take a breath and close my eyes
Wasted moments the brief applause
The growing silence never fails to enthrall, a hungry heart
Hang it out to dry you fool
Her love's not coming back to you
You'll search your life in vain to have it all again
I take a breath and close my eyes
I take a breath and close my eyes
Surely time will judge me fair releasing me from despair
Still wounded, but alive
drifting down that lonely road I see my past slipping by
I take a breath and close my eyes
I take a breath and close my eyes
I lock the door and turn out the light
Huddled under blankets in the night
I'll search my life in vain to have it all again
I take a breath and close my eyes
I take a breath and close my eyes
I take a breath and close my eyes
I take a breath and close my eyes
