Lost It In The Sun Lyrics - The Gathering Field

Guess I was not thinking about anything 

I guess I was just coasting along 

Don't know how I ever let her get away 

I guess that I just lost it in the sun 

Sorrowful, my heart is like a desert plain 

I'm a nomad drifting alone 

Broken hearted's looking like my middle name 

I guess that I just lost it in the sun 

I took a plane from Worcester back to Pittsburgh 

Memories in my head like bullets in a gun 

On the sea of love we ran into an iceberg 

Through our anchor down then lost it in the sun 

Lord have mercy 

Spectral visions danced upon the cabin wall 

And showed me all the things I'd done 

Got sidetracked by an honest woman thin and tall 

Saw Jesus hand then lost it in the sun 

We made love to guarantee our emptiness 

And after she said, "Least that's done." 

I could have sworn she had a knack for tenderness 

I guess that she just lost it in the sun 

I took a plane from Worcester back to Pittsburgh 

Memories in my head like bullets in a gun 

One the sea of love we ran into an iceberg 

Threw our anchor down and then lost it in the sun 

We lost it in the sun 

And only ones are only temporary 

You can place the blame on me 

Lasting love is over rated 

Guess I circumnavigated all that once meant anything to me 

Neath the blue sky we did run 

Least until we lost it in the sun 

Lord have mercy 

I guess I was not thinking about anything 

I guess I was just coasting along 

I don't know how I ever let her get away from me 

I guess that I just lost her in the sun . . .
