Lyrics

I can remember the places I stayed Things that I did the ways I behaved The women I loved the words that I said Like a dream passing through The causes I had and the corners I turned The friends that I left and the bridges I burned They were part of a pace a rhythm of life That will no longer do Hey man what about you Something has happened to me has it happened to you To my own heart I tried to be true Hey man what about you Winding my way through the turns and the bends I have been waiting for life to begin For something to do something to hold That was bigger than I Whatever I did it was never enough Wherever I stood I was still out of touch Like a man in the dark following sparks Through an ebony sky Like it or no I have come to this place The past in my heart the wind in my face And a son who was born on the eve of a war Of reckless design With my knees to the earth and my ear to the ground What I thought was the truth was only a sound Of a shot in th wind the beginning my friend Of these desperate times
