John Lee

By And By

Lost and alone
I\'m locked away
Not where I belong
But I\'m waiting
For you to take me home

The key isn\'t that far
It\'s within my reach
I\'m living inside my scar
It\'s too hard to see
By a forgotten star

Bound by the sound
Of the crying wolf
Order another round
Of tears by the brook
To wash away this mound

No angels can\'t fly
With a love so cold
Oh come by and by
My soul is sold
To a life that won\'t die

Oh come by and by
I\'m so alone
Come by and by
And take me home..
