Minor changes and grammar I land on an island coast Where the only souls I see are ghosts I run through a wooded isle And I chase the sunlight mile after mile And I feel like I know this place As the tree line breaks into wide-open space I stare at a bright red sun Though I search all day, I never find anyone
I walk on a winding road In the deep of the night, near the edge of the known I pass by a moonlit lake And a cold wind blows and my bones start to shake And I feel I should know this place As the road winds on into wide-open space The wind plays a haunting tone As I make my way through the night all alone
I been dreaming again of a lonesome world Where I'm lost and I've got no friends Just the rocks and the trees in my lonesome dreams And a road that don't never end I been dreaming again of a lonesome world Where I'm lost and I'm on my own What am I destined to be? It's a mystery baby Just please don't leave me alone
I lie under starlit sky And the seasons change in the blink of an eye I watch as the planets turn And the old stars die and the young stars burn But I don't really know this place And it's lonesome here in the wide-open space Can it be as real as it seems? Maybe this time I won't wake from the dream
