Gov't Mule - Wandering Child lyrics

rate me

In a lonely dream a boy goes walking Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion He says his world is just an ocean Says his poor heart too many times been broken The bones in your closet Once bore the skin of your fathers Guess that means it's out of your hands Or you're too tired, too tired to bother Help me now, save the wandering child Now that you're broken, who'll clean up this mess Now that your vision is blinded, I guess You say where do I fall, now that my strength is gone And who do I tell, I've done nothing wrong Float upon the river till the water runs still Dive to the bottom-got to drink from the well Till I find out who I am, till I find out who I am Now that there's no one to show me Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child In a lonely dream a boy keeps walking Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion He says his kill-it is his crown Says his angels are no longer looking down A horse and a monkey, no kids and no wife A hell of a way for a hero to spend his life Time to unearth the worm Let this bridge fall down and burn Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child
