Lost So Long - Children 18:3

I’ve been lost so long

I can barely see

Clawing halfway home

Hit the edge of Kansas City

One small swansong in my head across the ground

I was the chimes moving on through the wind

But every word was empty sound

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every dream turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

I smelled the wind and it turned me back like a staggering blow

We came to the edge and I shut my eyes

I could tell you what we found there

But nobody really wants to know

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every dream turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every dream turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

Please just take us home

There’s nothing left to stand on here anymore

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every cloud turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

Rain’s coming (x13)

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every cloud turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

Close your eyes, baby sleep

Float across the gentle sea

Every cloud turning grey

Holds the promises of rain coming

Rain’s coming (x6)
