Land Of The Living Lyrics - Walter Egan

by Walter Egan and Billy Cioffi 

Whatever happened to the dreams we used to keep 

Those crazy precious moments now so bittersweet 

Once I'd convinced myself I really knew it all 

Way up on my high horse just riding for a fall 

I used to feel so different 

I used to feel immune 

Back to the land of the living, I've been away for awhile 

I couldn't see what was in me, the father or the child 

I'm gonna need some forgiving I'm asking for a new trial 

Back in the land of the living, no denial 

However many roads I wandered down alone 

Somehow I never seemed to find my way back home 

Too many solitary nights surrounded me 

Until I felt so different until I felt in tune 

Chorus 

Now I stand at your door my heart in my throat 

Trying so hard to find the words I never spoke 

I won't fell like I'm home 'til I'm in your arms again 

Chorus
