The Lost Song - The Cat Empire

I had nine lives but I lost all of them

And I've been searching in the night

And I've been searching in the rain

I tried to find them

But they disappeared

They walked away they dressed in black

They left my side and all I say

Is that I wasted time

When I looked for them

For now I know that things gone past

Are never to be found again

No never never again

I had nine lives

But lost all of them

I had a plan

But never finished it

And I've been searching for the thought

And I've been searching in a haze

I try all days

To remember it

But now the blueprint in my mind has gone

My mind forgot the colour of direction

And my eyes they see the hands

That could have built

That could have constructed

The empire in my mind

The empire

I'll never find

I had a plan

But that was where it ended
