Lyrics For The Lost And Lonely - Shawn Phillips

For The Lost And Lonely

In the night for the lost and lonely
They will find that loves the only way for the light
To shine so bright for them
They will find it comes along
And it’s always strong
You don’t have to look, or read a book
It comes to you when you are through
With the fight
It never fails to amaze me so
How the courage comes when the hard times grow
We find a way to always say, we’ll make it now
We keep on truckin'
Now you find, it was in your mind
The doubt you feel 'bout what is real
You know at once, you have to trust yourself
Now the love’s in a hard cocoon
Blows away with the wind, and it bursts in bloom
The open heart, will do it’s part, untold
It senses others
Long or brief, it’s like a thief
It steals the soul, and makes it whole
And leaves in it’s place, a filled up space
In the night
In the night for the lost and lonely
They will find that loves the only way for the light
To shine so bright for them
They will find it comes along
And it’s always strong
You don’t have to look, or read a book
It comes to you when you are through
With the fight
