Whatever happened to the dreams I used to keep? Those crazy precious moments now so bittersweet Once I convinced myself I really knew it all Way up on my high horse just ridin' for the 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'm 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 I so different Until I felt in tune Back to the land of the living I've been away for awhile I'm 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 Now I stand at your door, my heart in my throat Trying so hard to find the words I never spoke And I won't feel like I'm home till I'm in your arms again Back to the land of the living I've been away for awhile I'm 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 Back in the land of the living No denial
