Long Lost Wind (Remastered)

I'm twenty-one. My family's gone

There's 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 lifes 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
