Abandoned
Once my life was plain and clearI recallOnce my ignorance was blissNightfall cameLike a serpent’s kissTo my troubled mind
Why, oh why my GodHave you abandoned meIn my sobriety?Behind the old façadeI'm your bewildered childSo take me 'cross the river wide
Binding promises were madeOn my soulGrand illusions led astrayIce cold winds swept my heart awayBring me back to you
Why, oh why my GodHave you abandoned meIn my sobriety?Behind the old façadeI'm your bewildered childSo take me 'cross the river wide.
I remember a songLike in a dreamWhen September was longWinter unreal.
Why oh why, my God above,Have you abandoned meIn my sobriety?Behind the old façadeI'm your bewildered childSo take me 'cross the river wide.
