| I sit alone in discontent
|
| Your ears don’t hear what I say
|
| After a while you disconnect
|
| To set you apart from pain
|
| I walked past you all your life
|
| But there is only one place
|
| Next to you where I decide
|
| In the presence of grace
|
| Hide your eyes from what is real
|
| And you don’t know what I’ll do
|
| The planets locked in all these drawers
|
| But only one holds the clue
|
| Watch for people coming through
|
| They don’t know where I stand
|
| One foot is by your side
|
| And one in another land
|
| I been down so many roads
|
| As a child too far away
|
| I’ve been down so many roads
|
| I was travelling too far away, I say
|
| I returned from miles away
|
| To find that I didn’t know you
|
| I would go where the river flows
|
| If I were able to
|
| But I walk by you once again
|
| There is only one place
|
| Next to you where I decide
|
| In the presence of your grace
|
| I’ve been down so many roads
|
| As a child too far away
|
| I’ve been down so many roads
|
| I was travelling too far away
|
| I been down so many roads
|
| I was travelling too far away
|
| Ba, ba, ba, ba, aah |
