Lonesome Desire
I'm a lost soul wandering
With my eyes in the dark
A road that I chose
A long time ago
A church that I walked by
I used to pray in that house
There were monsters of evil
But they don't chase me now
Chorus:
Lonesome desire
Take my dying hand
Into a warm place
I don't understand
Relieve my longing
For these nights are so cold
It's just you and me only
But I'm all alone
I'm just listening for something
That I haven't heard yet
While the silence is waltzing
Through the frame in my bed
When I took you I knew you
But I broke your heart still
'Cause I'm not a strong man
when desire is filled
(Chorus)
The memories are fading
And slip through the seams
The places I've called home
The used distant dreams
To taste that sweet water
In this dry throat so old
The reflection is blinding
In the picture I hold
(Chorus)
