If I Ever Lose My Mind

Tired & neglected

Lost for the moment

Thoughts are collected

Never relent

Cold winds are blowin'

Green fields are empty

Rivers are flowin'

Back to the sea

The clock in the courtyard

Chimes out it's message

And witness the changes

They're meant to be

I wouldn't change it for a thousand years

If I ever lose my mind

It's not the way that anythin' appears

And I won't let it all unwind

It's a journey to the promised land

I don't know how long it takes

Pretty soon I'll have to play my hand

After all they're my mistakes

Caught in the shadows

Hiding completely

All good intentions

Carry the day

I've no objection

No need to worry

It's pure invention

It takes me away

I wouldn't change it for a thousand years

If I ever lose my mind

It's not the way that anythin' appears

And I won't let it all unwind

It's a journey to the promised land

I don't know how long it takes

Pretty soon I'll have to play my hand

After all they're my mistakes

I really don't know where we are

Or what we've become

In time these things will come to pass

Before we're undone

I wouldn't change it for a thousand years

If I ever lose my mind

It's not the way that anythin' appears

And I won't let it all unwind

It's a journey to the promised land

I don't know how long it takes

Pretty soon I'll have to play my hand

After all they're my mistakes
