By And By

John Lee

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..
