We were
always on our own on
Just breathing the day
We were always all alone
Just drifting
away
Reflecting stories that were told
O-vodie-o-doe
Looking back upon the old
As something unsold
Suddenly you find yourself
Gazing ahead
You
throw your dreams
Hard and fast
Like something un-dead
But hold your thoughts
Hold your dreams
I’ve
something to say
You know that you have my love
But something is strange
Found a girl in white tonight
Her hair was hanging down
Through the darkness was the light
Broke
the silence all around me
God rest my soul I don’t know
What made her that way
She softly come, then she go
And I heard her say
"Boy
don’t you know
That you’re lost
You’ll never be free
Boy don’t
you know
That you’re lost
Here without me?"
Found a girl
in white tonight
Her hair was hanging down
Through the darkness was the light
Broke
the silence all around me
