I parted ways with common sense
It makes no difference
Shadows still remain
And the cross I carried fell apart
Now I carry an empty heart
And I still feel like a stranger
And I think it's time to stop
How many times can you wash your face in a desert sand?
How many times can you try to pretend?
I'd pretend and I'd lie
Just to be here by your side
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night
I keep looking for a little light
To shine on me
Across the great divide
It's getting harder every year
But I got nothing left to fear
I know you're coming home
Scenes from yesterday come and go
My anxiety starts to grow
And I just wanna know
When it's time to end the show
And how many times can you wash your face in a desert sand?
And all I know
All I know
Is to pretend
I'd pretend and I'd lie
Just to be here by your side
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night
I keep looking for a little light
To shine on me
Across the great divide
I'd pretend and I'd lie
Just to be here by your side
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night
I keep looking for a little light
To shine on me
Across the great divide
Ohhhh
Show me the way, yeah
Ohhhh, oh
I keep looking for a little light
Across the great divide
