The Waterboys — Lonesome and a Long Way from Home

Every face I see is a stranger Every step I take I see danger I must have walked one thousand miles on my own as I roam Lost and lonesome and a long long way from home The man I used be has disappeared I haven't heard him laugh for a hundred years My courage has abandoned me, my spirit too has flown, and I'm alone Lost and lonesome and a long long way from home There is light at the end of the road I am told Peace in the valley and a city of gold I must be facing backwards because all I can see Is a storm-black rain cloud falling on me All my dreams have been broken Oaths and prayer words have been spoken There's nothing in this God almighty world will soften up my heart of stone I'm lost and lonesome and a long long way from home
