Gone, gone are the days When the west was wild An every child's dream A light was seen Gone, gone are the days When the world just sung for tomorrow to come But she never came If I was to break If I was to pay Blue moon, are you lost again Where will I find your light Where will I find the truth How will we ever say goodbye 'Cause we're turning the pages again Bound by the lives that have been spent I'm not living your third world lies Goodbye, better days ahead Goodbye Gone, gone are the days All these questions No straight answers Everybody's a high priced healer, hey Gone, gone are the days 'Tis the season of change Every scar on the hand marks a new day Sleep child Slip into a dream Poppa hasn't been home Busy living out this crazy scene Blue moon, are you lost again Where will I find your light Where will I find the truth How will we ever say goodbye 'Cause we're turning the pages again Bound by the lives that have been spent I'm not living your third world lies Goodbye, better days ahead Reached out to feel each grain A lifetime running through his hands The scorching heat left our heart The workings of a proud brown man But nowhere could you see Dark eyes look away The pride and the flame Reached out to feel the warmth Time running through his hands The scorching heat gave life The heart of the proud brown man And he says to his child Who still couldn't stand Someday
