Lonely Sky

A hundred thousand miles, a hundred thousand miles

On wings I've gone a hundred thousand miles

The clouds have been my home like a sea from which I've grown

Riding up above on lonely sky

*

Forsaken and alone am I bound to roam and roam

Can I ever set on down and wonder why

They've forgotten me although I've given them a go

A hundred thousand miles I've gone on high

*

As a young man I was old now I'm older so I'm told

The wings of time have never said goodbye

Why do you overlook the happy life you took

Riding up above on lonely sky

*

In a war of stormy nights in the stars of lightening bright

The beacon in my mind is in your skies

You will never be alone as I've been for oh so long

A hundred thousand miles I've gone on high

*

There a landing zone called peace as we skip on clouds beneath

I see a light so far beyond closed eyes

I think you feel it too it seems we always knew

Riding up above on lonely sky
