lyrics

Left my home one winter's day, some business in the town
Walking back I lost my way as the sun was going down
As darkness fell I scanned the sky
No stars did shine, no moon to light my way
No compass and no map had I
Just the blood out on the streets and the doubts inside my mind

I wonder if I'll ever make it home tonight

Foreign tongues and hungry eyes on every stranger's face
Dangerous and compromised by the hard edge of this place
Maybe they were once like me
Lost along the road to somewhere else
I won't surrender quietly:
I might be stranded here forever with no hope of getting out

I wonder if I'll ever make it home tonight

Crickets stop when I pass by, the night birds mock my plight
I cannot stop, I will not lie, though no trail ahead seems right
All I have are your last words to me to keep my footsteps light
Your last words to me...

I wonder if I'll ever make it home tonight
