Philosophers Stone Lyrics - Back On Top - Van Morrison

Out on the highways and the by-ways all alone 

I'm still searching for, searching for my home 

Up in the morning, up in the morning out on the road 

And my head is aching and my hands are cold 

And I'm looking for the silver lining 

Silver lining in the clouds and I'm searching for 

And I'm searching for the philosophers stone 

And it's a hard road, it's a hard road daddy-o 

When my job is turning lead into gold 

He was born in the back street 

Born in the back street Jelly Roll 

I'm on the road again and I'm searching for 

The philosophers stone 

Can you hear that engine? 

Woe, can you hear that engine drone? 

Well, I'm on the road again and I'm searching for

Searching for the philosophers stone 

Up in the morning, up in the morning 

When the streets are white with snow 

It's a hard road, it's a hard road daddy-o 

Up in the morning, up in the morning 

Out on the job, well, you've got me searching for 

Searching for, the philosophers stone 

Even my best friends 

Even my best friends they don't know 

That my job is turning lead into gold 

When you hear that engine 

When you hear that engine drone 

I'm on the road again and I'm searching for 

The philosophers stone 

It's a hard road, even my best friends they don't know
