Lost

 

So here we are, or rather, here am I, quite alone;

 

I'm seeing things that were shared before, long ago;

 

my memory stretches and I am dazed.

 

 

You know I know

 

how good the time was and how I laughed.

 

Times have changed, now you're far away, I can't complain -

 

I had all my chances but they slipped right through my ha - ands

 

like so much sand;

 

I know I'll never dance like I used to.

 

 

I'll just wait till day breaks upon the land and the sea,

 

hoping that I can catch all of the memories;

 

then I must crawl off upon my way,

 

all of me listening hard for the final words.

 

But there are none, the sunrise calls, I've lingered on

 

too close for comfort and I don't know quite why - y

 

I feel like crying -

 

I know we'll never dance like we used to.

BRIDGE 2:

 

 

 

 

 

 

I look up, I'm almost blin - ded

 

by the warmth of what's inside me

 

and the taste that's in my soul,

 

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone.

(Second Voice enters here) sta - and a

- lo - one

 

 

(The Dance in Frost)

 

I wore my moods like different sets of clothes

 

but the right one was never around

 

and as you left I heard my body ring

 

and my mind began to howl.

 

It was far to late to contemplate the meaning of it all;

 

You know that I need you, but somehow

 

I don't think you see my love at all.

 

 

BRIDGE 3: Sax solo is played in E key.

 

At some point I lost you, I don't know quite how that

was.

 

The wonderland lay in a coat of white, chilling frost;

 

 

I looked a - round and I found I was truly lost...

 

 

without your hand in mine I am dead.

 

 

Reality is unreal and games I've tried just aren't the same:

 

without your smile there's nowhere to hi - ide

 

(yes) and deep inside

 

I know I' ve never cried as I'm about to ...

 

If I could just frame the words

 

that would make your fire burn

 

all this water now around me could be the love

 

that should surround me.

 

 

BRIDGE 4:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking out through the tears that blind me

 

my heart bleeds that you may find me

 

or at least that I can

 

forget and be numb,

 

but I can't stop, the words still come:

 

I love yo - u. x4
