|
My destination is unknown |
|
And i've lost my way |
|
But I still have water |
|
With my rations running low |
|
I am so fatigued |
|
Can I go much further? |
|
Lost and all alone |
|
In the blazing heat |
|
And it just gets hotter |
|
Sweat drips down my skin |
|
And string my eyes |
|
As I look toward the distance |
|
Blistered hands block the sun |
|
That blinds my sight |
|
And dances on the horizon |
|
Is there something up ahead? |
|
Or just a mirage |
|
Fooling me again |
|
Another dried up waterhole |
|
Lacking nourishment |
|
Quench my thirst and feed my mind |
|
The place that |
|
I seek is so far away |
|
And I don't know which way to go |
|
The vision |
|
I see is a holy place |
|
That is tranquil to the soul |
|
Just a nomad sailling across this earthly sea |
|
Searching on and on for sanctuary |
|
Weary from the chase of life's eluding dream |
|
Strive to reach that goal but it's never ending |
|
Raise my canteen to parched lips |
|
Taste the water so sweet |
|
Take one last swallow |
|
So many miles |
|
I have come |
|
So many more to go |
|
Down the path |
|
I follow Funny how we lose our way |
|
Through this desolate land |
|
Lives are grains of sand |
|
Which way will the wind blow? |
|
Sifting through our hands |
|
To fall wherever they may |
|
The place that |
|
I seek is so far away |
|
And I don't know which way to go |
|
The vision |
|
I see is a holy place |
|
That is tranquil to the soul [Music: D.Ott,P.Craddick] [Lyrics: D.Ott] |
