Long Lost Wind
I'm twenty-one
My familys gone
Theres no one left to lean on here since I was young
I stumbled round from home to home
Searching for a family of my own
I didn't learn the way that most kids did
Bad was good and good was bad and I was lost
Til I stole my first bible
The only truth that I could trust
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
Well momma danced with alcohol
Daddy wasn't home at all and time ticked slow
I'd run around and play pretend
The dog my only real true friend but mean as hell
I looked forward to them old cartoons
Tweety Bird and Looney Tunes would turn my eye
From the cold hard truth about my youth
Where neglect was a blessing in disguise
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
When I finally got the nerve to talk to you
You were so high what's a teenage boy to do
So I stood and shook my fist at God
Feeling like my life's been robbed
Ripping my last dollar from my soul
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
My familys gone
Theres no one left to lean on here since I was young
I stumbled round from home to home
Searching for a family of my own
I didn't learn the way that most kids did
Bad was good and good was bad and I was lost
Til I stole my first bible
The only truth that I could trust
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
Well momma danced with alcohol
Daddy wasn't home at all and time ticked slow
I'd run around and play pretend
The dog my only real true friend but mean as hell
I looked forward to them old cartoons
Tweety Bird and Looney Tunes would turn my eye
From the cold hard truth about my youth
Where neglect was a blessing in disguise
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
When I finally got the nerve to talk to you
You were so high what's a teenage boy to do
So I stood and shook my fist at God
Feeling like my life's been robbed
Ripping my last dollar from my soul
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was searching for my only kin
But as the days turned to a dim lit hue
My cries would lull and droop my weary eyes
I was somewhere in the long lost wind
I was staring at that door again
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
You never turned around to say goodbye you
You left me somewhere in the wind
